Some highlights: Building one of Notion’s most visible UIs Why recreating interactions teaches you craft Owning the last 5-20% of frontend polish work The “jelly bean factory” problem with AI output When to start in Figma vs. jumping straight to code How Andy creates prototypes that content teams can edit a lot more
