Back in 2020 I made a website that generates color palettes for TailwindCSS project, based on a given image logo. The nice part? It is still alive and get 100 stars ⭐️ (I know, it’s nothing 🤣) in this AI era. Thank you, whoever starred it and still use it 🥰. 👉 colorgen.dev

AI is fast and convenient. But that’s exactly why understanding starts to slip. My rule when reviewing AI-suggested fixes: If you can’t explain why it works, stop. Shipping with AI ≠ learning. If AI can answer for you — what are you actually responsible for?

Technical presentations aren’t just about what you built — they’re about why it matters. 💡 Last week, I shared my talk “Tell the Story, Not Just the Specs” internally @salesforce — on turning complex ideas into clear, engaging stories.🎤✨ What’s your #1 tip for giving better tech talks?

Happy Rosh Hashana! 🍎🍯 This year brought fresh starts, new achievements—and even a sweet new addition to my not-so-big family 😆. I’m grateful for all that’s happened and excited for what’s ahead. As the saying goes: Don’t worry, be happy—everything happens for a reason 😘. Cheers! 🥂

What an amazing 4 years at Microsoft! I've grown so much, from front-end to leading projects from start to finish, from web to AI. It was a blast! Deciding to leave wasn't easy, but I'm ready for my next adventure. I'm sure we will see each other again! Thanks @matanbobi.dev for the mat!

Yup, I built a tool to automate my article publishing, which does: ✅ Schedule drafts to be published ✅ Automatically generate and schedule content for LinkedIn ✅ Cross-Posting to Dev .to. ✅ Send status email Thanks to @netlify.com Async Workloads, the entire workflow runs like a charm! 🥰 Demo 👇

I added a page to show case the design aspects of my website like the color palette, icon styles and the Nuxt modules I used ☺️ mayashavin.com/designkit

080

Maya Shavin @mayashavin.com · 10/01/2025

I removed it for now and use nuxt google fonts instead. But with it it turns out to throw some JS stack overflow error 🥲. If you want more info, let me open a GitHub issue, would be easier for you right?

Maya Shavin @mayashavin.com · 10/01/2025

With the help of ChatGPT, I managed to come up with a new palette for my website, based on my preferences and current theme. And so, here we go, my personal website with the new look: mayashavin.com ❤️ ✨ To get the base palette: ChatGPT + DallE ✨ To get the variants: colorgen.dev

This is probably the most expensive personal laptop I ever purchased 😂😂. But looks promising… bigger than my old Macbook Pro and a bit lighter in weight (14inch vs 13inch). Took me a while for switching, all the wait pays off I guess. Now maybe it’s time for me to work on that video channel 🙃

Got myself an ergonomic portable laptop stand from Black Friday deal ☺️☺️. It is perfect for keeping my back and my neck comfortable while I’m drawing or working not near my desk. The best part? It is height adjustable ✌🏻

Maya Shavin @mayashavin.com · 25/11/2024

Hmm interesting… relatable to what I wonder? It was based on Basim’s costume from Assassin Creed though 😅 👇🏻 maybe I didn’t manage to capture all aspects of it…

59 is not a big number, but for me it is an achievement (I thought max 2 installs 😂). I started out this as a fun project to: ✨ Learn VS Code extension API ✨ Solve my problem of writing context-switch ✨ Make an extension (had that on list for some time) So yeah, it is such a great feeling! 🥰
