rafaelBGon Show HN: Iglu – micro-journaling with on-device intelligence, for iOS

Oh, my bad! I've just fixed it, though it may take a couple of hours to become available to you, sorry about that! I'd appreciate if you could try again later and let me know if it's working. Hope you come back! Thanks, friend!

rafaelBGon Hi, I'm Rafael

(I haven't bought a domain yet, so I just hosted it in GitHub Pages for now)

So... opinions? What do you think about the overall design, execution, responsiveness, etc?

Also, I would very much appreciate some screenshots so I can see how the design is doing on other devices/OSs.

Thanks!

rafaelBGon Show HN: AI-Generated Stock Photography

This is very cool! I honestly think that major stock photography companies will come to use AI to generate at least some of its images in the near future. Congrats!

rafaelBGon Learn UI Design – Course Reopens This Wednesday

I am posting this because I know how amazing Erik's (the creator of the course) tips are, so I can only imagine how great his course is. I will likely enroll this week and can later give feedback if anyone wants me to.

rafaelBGon Brex, valued at $12.3B earlier this year, lays off 11% of staff

It's quite sad to see this. Brex was founded by Brazilians (like me) and I've heard great things about one of them, Pedro Franceschi, on Filipe Deschamps' YouTube channel.

rafaelBGon Ask HN: How to build a website that will last 30 years?

If you use technology like JS, TS, common frameworks, and a provider that will likely not shutdown in 30 years, I mean, I think it can last 30 years.

rafaelBGon Ask HN: Notion Alternative

Maybe Google Docs is better? You can give it a try.

rafaelBGon Ask HN: How soon should we have a Design System?

Not really... When I'm making a "mini design system", I just create a Figma file with the colors, gradients, shadows, components and typography. I think this is enough to use in a smaller project and you don't have to make it fancy or anything. Just put things there in a way a normal person can understand and that's it. My suggestion is: don't overthink it. If it's not a big project (yet), you can just use your intuition sometimes.

rafaelBGon Ask HN: How soon should we have a Design System?

I have no experience with big projects and infrastructure but I believe that having a design system from the beginning can avoid a lot of headache in the future. I personally always make a "mini design system" for my personal projects. Besides, it's kinda cool to make design systems.
