This landscape is moving way too quickly for any one person to keep up with, and there's so much hype-y bullshit and noise. That's why we created a healthy space to collectively work through latest trends, swap ideas, answer questions, show & tell, and learn different perspectives.

When making websites, I almost never stay in a single lane. I flit around updating copy, tweaking styles, adjusting structure, and whatever's required to get the dang thing done. Some may see this as bad (my apologies to every PM I ever worked with), but this is my creative process and it is Good.

I was just at multiple conferences in multiple countries; it's so apparent that EVERYONE is processing their grief around AI. bradfrost.com/blog/post/gr... Also apparent is a healthy way of processing it is to come together & discuss it with vulnerability and nuance. This is what community is for.

Installing DaVinci Resole Studio. Let's see how this goes; I haven't been satisfied with pretty much any video editor ever, so I'm hoping this at least alleviates some frustration.

I still bristle at the word "scale", but it truly feels like we found a way to scale help, empowerment, education, and (most importantly) quality. This is the opposite of vibe coding; we're pointing AI at sturdying critical architecture and infrastructure, and people are seeing immediate results.

Brad Frost @bradfrost.com · 14/09/2026

To witness that in realtime genuinely blows my mind, does so much to validate all of our hard work, and gets me dreaming of all the potential. We're building tools, education, resources, and community to help people sturdy their mission-critical design system infrastructure.

I just ran my first in-person AI & Design Systems workshop, which distills what we detail in our course: aianddesign.systems I watched a room full of people use my SKILLS to audit their own design systems, surface a slew of accessibility/sync/quality issues, and then FIX THEM.

Brad Frost @bradfrost.com · 10/09/2026

And it's worth saying that nobody has this fully figured out yet, including us! That's why we've created a community that gives us a healthy place to explore, grow, and learn together. We're super proud of what we've put together, and are glad people are finding it valuable.

AI reshaped our workflows faster than any of us could document them, and this course is the first thing I’ve found that treats that as a systems problem instead of a tooling trend. The structure and pace are excellent, the resources are genuinely useful, the Jam Sessions and Slack community 🧑🏻‍🍳💋, topped off with questionable (okay, great) 80s references - this course rock my socks! Brad, Ian, and TJ clearly built this for practitioners doing the actual work.

This landscape is changing literally every day, which is why we've designed this course to be very much alive! We've been careful to present durable core concepts while leaving the door open for ongoing lessons and demos as the landscape continues to evolve.

The arc of the course: Core concepts. The benefits & challenges of design systems, the great potential (and great risks!) of AI, and how AI & design systems together make a powerful combo.
Environments & tools setup. We demystify installing and configuring LLMs, AI-powered IDEs, Figma, Node, API keys, MCPs, Git & GitHub, and more.
Make better design systems with AI. Make your design system AI-ready and address your check engine light. Learn how to use AI to help audit, improve, and synchronize your design system assets.
Make better products with AI & design systems. Apply AI & design systems together across the entire product design & development process to unlock quality, consistency, efficiency, and scale.
Inventing the next generation of UX. Inventing the future! Agents as users, generative UI, hyper-personalization, real-time interfaces, and the creative infinite.
Operationalizing AI & design systems at your organization. Get buy-in, run a pilot program, roll out across teams, and establish the governance to help your org navigate this fast-moving landscape.

After watching and hearing @tink.uk talk on the subject a few times now, I've been thinking a lot about alt text, and in particular how an LLM is going to do a much better service than me writing it (in many cases). I've tried: Gemini and three local models trained from Common Objects in Context.

🔥 New blog post! My post on two-state dark mode toggles sparked a lot of discussion around what the optimal dark mode toggle design is. But should you have a (persistent) dark mode toggle *at all*? I have since been convinced that for most websites, the answer is NO. lea.verou.me/blog/2026/da...
