AI Elements looks really good. It has pre-built React components for AI apps like chats, messages, code blocks and reasoning views. Building this UI from scratch is tough, wish I had it months ago 😅 ai-sdk.dev/elements/ove...

"Can you make what’s under the asterisk more visible?" Me: Absolutely. This animation didn’t make it into the new xata.io, but we loved it anyway.

The best tool I’ve found for generating color palettes for Tailwind and similar use cases is gka.github.io/palettes. I’ve been using it for years, as it ensures the palette is colorblind-safe. Most other Tailwind color generators feel too basic for my needs.

I miss those days too. So... I’ve been working on my website inspired by my first computer, the ZX Spectrum. I added some keyboard shortcuts, a few animations, and coded a mini-game. It’s still a work in progress. I might add sounds too. It’s been a fun little project to keep me inspired. 😊

I’m building my new website inspired by the ZX Spectrum. While researching about it, I came across Museum LOAD ZX Spectrum in Portugal. It’s so close to home, I had to visit today. Such a cool place!

I came across payloadcms.com a few weeks ago and decided to try it out at xata.io. We’ve been using MDX for our blog. It works, but a WYSIWYG editor would be much easier, especially for the marketing team. Let’s see if Payload can make our workflow easier and content management simpler for everyone.

So happy that Framer Motion is now an independent open-source library called Motion! The old docs were tough to use and made me look for alternatives a few times, but now they finally have a search feature. Huge thanks for making this happen, @citizenofnowhe.re! 🙌 motion.dev/blog/framer-...
