I'm super excited to open up the beta signups for the app I've been working on.
I have been struggling to find spaces where I can have meaningful conversations with other designers about my work in progress, or my personal work-related struggles, especially during these crazy times!
While I was working at Wix, I had 20-30 other designers I was talking to regularly, and that was amazing! I left Wix to work for a small startup, then later started freelancing and I have been struggling to recreate that community ever since - That's my hope for this platform.
The app itself has already gone through several iterations based on user feedback, and I'm now ready to gradually open it up for more members.
I would love to hear what you think, and hope to see you there :)

I'll start with some context - I'm a UX designer at Wix.com, where I also get to play around with front-end development (Prototyping).
Whenever a framework like React or Angular comes up in a conversation with fellow designers, I will always have a hard time explaining what these tools are/why do we use it.
(I think) I'm having a hard time explaining, because I had never built anything meant for 'production', nor with vanilla.
What I usually end up with, is: "a framework asks that you write your code in a specific manner, according to a set of rules. In return, it will do some super clever assumptions, such that your end product will be better (Maintainable, performant, etc...)".
I feel like this explanation could be better. Any thoughts?
Thanks!
What are some cool, small, DIY projects you saw, or wish to see utilizing the Arduino micro controller.
Thanks!
