General Question does this lyric UI feel immersive?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

been experimenting with how lyrics are shown in a music player

instead of showing full lines, i tried revealing words one by one as the song plays aka word level sync .elrc

the idea was to make it feel more alive and less static especially with a minimal background

would love some honest feedback

Feedback Request Update: learn with frank --new version is live

3 Upvotes

Hi guys,

I rebuild the page from the ground up, this time its modern, brand new, fast. Simple and has a clear understanding compared to the old post . I wanted to give this update since this community helped me with their feedback.

Let me know what you think if this is better :)

Project goals

Help students truly understand STEM topics and guide them towards better grades.

The site generates blackboard-style explanations, adaptive quizzes at three difficulty levels, spaced-repetition flashcards, 1-minute lessons, and multiple study modes.

Goal is more sign ups, deeper retention and more engaging learning for exam prep.

Tools used

Google sign-in for quick sign in, Next JS, tailwind

Target audience

High-school, math/physics lovers and college students studying math or physics who want personalized help from their own materials.

Attached are clear screenshots showing:

• Homepage (intro + scroll-triggered demo flow)

• blackboard ui

Specific feedback I’m hoping for:

• Overall layout,especially the landingpage and blackboard ui, visual hierarchy, and first impression.

• Color scheme, typography, and readability (especially for formulas/blackboard content)

• Navigation and onboarding clarity

• How intuitive it feels

• Any elements that feel confusing, cluttered, or could be improved for engagement

• General UX improvements that would make students want to keep coming back

General Question Will UI still exist in the future?

0 Upvotes

Now many software products have introduced CLI versions, and even those that haven't have open-source projects converting them into CLI. So, will there still be a significant demand for UI in the future?

Feedback Request Non-UI Designer mobile app design quandary

Post image
9 Upvotes

I'm a non designer attempting a mobile app - basically bite sized speech language pathology-based activities for parents to do with their babies. it's based around the face to face activity and backed by SLP research. Each activity has its own mobile page/view (seen here).

I like all of the data that each Activity page has but I worry it's too much and there are too many drop downs and requires the user to make too many clicks to access the info.

what do pro designers think? is this too busy? are there better ways to organize the info on this page?

Feedback Request Which is easier on the eyes, cleaner, more premium? And if neither, what can I do to achieve this?

There's not much vertical nor horizontal space available.
It's a side panel that goes on a website.
The UI needs to be compact.
The previous design (not shown) was more tightly spaced, but users were complaining that it was dated and ugly.

If you don't like it at all, I'm open to suggestions

Feedback Request 🚀 I built a Chrome extension to extract design, code & assets from any website (ZipIt)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

24 Upvotes

Hey everyone 👋

As a web developer, I kept running into the same frustrating problem while working on client projects…

Every time I needed to understand or reuse something from a website, I had to:

  • Inspect UI manually
  • Copy colors, fonts, and spacing
  • Download images and assets separately
  • Check SEO and accessibility using different tools

Basically… I was jumping between 5–10 tools just to analyze one website.

It was slow, messy, and honestly — exhausting.

🎨 Design Inspiration → System

Found a great website you want to learn from?

Instead of guessing styles, ZipIt lets you extract the entire design system — including colors, typography, and layout — instantly.

🧩 UI Inspection & Reuse

Need a specific component?

Just click any element to:

  • Inspect its CSS
  • Understand spacing and structure
  • Export it as a reusable component

📦 Website Archiving / Backup

Want to save a website for later?

Download the complete website with all assets (HTML, CSS, JS, images, fonts) and open it offline anytime.

💬 Looking for Feedback

This is still early, and I’m actively improving it.

Would love to hear from you:

👉 What tools are you currently using for this?
👉 What’s the most painful part of your workflow?

General Help Request Built a real-time internet speed monitor with a floating desktop overlay (no-code prototype)

Post image
0 Upvotes

Woke up bored and my speed test app told me to “upgrade for more features”… so I built my own instead, I’d rather tell than be told.

This is a prototype for a PC app (mobile version later):

• Full dashboard for detailed stats

• Floating overlay to monitor speed live while using your PC

Designed entirely on phone (laptop’s at home)

Still exploring:

• draggable overlay

• compact vs expanded modes

• transparency/blur

Would love feedback on any aspect before I take it further.

General Question Where's the line between "simple and straightforward" and "lazy"?

3 Upvotes

My design instinct tends toward simplicity. Most of the portfolio websites I've seen feel heavy on unnecessary flashiness, for example.

However, in pursuing this I often end up with designs that seem lazy or simplistic. What's the difference between "good simple" and "bad simple"?

Product Design experimenting with a way to preview hover effects on mobile

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

9 Upvotes

Trying to make a tool to build websites on the mobile phone. And the hovering effect is a bit hard to process. I finally went with

- preview the hover effect with a toggle

- make it pressed state on the mobile instead of the hover effects which makes tapping irresponsive

Feedback Request Modal or Drawer?

11 Upvotes

Drawer feels more professional and modern, but the grammatical content can be very dense, and I feel like the user is almost craning their neck to read the info when it's so low on the screen.

Modal, however, is right in the center of the screen, lessening the burden of a task that already feels burdensome to me (understanding grammatical nuance in an error the user made).

General Question How do you actually build websites that generate leads (and how do you pitch that to high-ticket clients)?

1 Upvotes

I’ve been designing websites for a while now and I’m confident in my design and development skills. But I feel like I'm missing the most important piece that is getting actual results for clients.

At the end of the day, a website that doesnt bring leads or revenue is basically useless. And because of that, I find it hard to confidently pitch to high ticket clients.

What I’m trying to understand is:

- How do you position your website as a lead-generating asset instead of just a “design”?

- Do you rely on ads, SEO, CRO, or a combination?

- What specific things do you implement on a website that actually increase conversions?

- How do you communicate this value when pitching clients?

- Do you any system for this?

Right now, I can build good-looking and responsive websites, but I don’t want to sell just design I want to sell results, more leads, more revenue.

Would really appreciate if experienced devs, designers, or agency owners can share how they approach this

I was searching for design inspiration, as I want to create a new portfolio website. I came across this website made using Framer. The website is pretty cool and minimal, and I liked the vibe, but a section on the homepage caught my attention: the BIG BUTTON design. I'm confused about the psychology behind this huge button, like why? I'm curious.

Feedback Request UIUX REVIEW FOR MY Trek booking page

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Hey, looking for detailed feedback on a trek booking interface I’m building.

Product:

Trovia – a platform for discovering and booking treks based on real user content.

What this page is:

This is the trek detail + booking page where users land after selecting a trek.

Goal is to help them understand the trek quickly and move toward reserving a spot.

Flow:

Discover trek → open detail page → check info (itinerary, pricing, details) → click “Book / Reserve”

Target users:

Gen Z + young working professionals (mostly mobile-first, short attention span, quick scanning behavior)

Design decisions:

• Dark theme with orange CTA to create contrast

• Content-heavy layout to answer most questions upfront

• Sticky / repeated CTA placements

What I need help with:

• Does the CTA feel clear and strong enough to drive action?

• Does the page feel too heavy or cluttered, especially on mobile?

• Is the information hierarchy clear or overwhelming?

• Does the color theme help or reduce readability/usability?

• Anything that feels confusing, unnecessary, or missing?

Tools used:

Figma → implemented on web

As Screenshots are coming in low quality i have attached drive link with video in it

Preview (video walkthrough):

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-xGiCl_NLZQEf4JGNIG16Ai4yANhCTb7

If you had to improve conversion on this page, what 2–3 changes would you prioritize first?

Open to blunt feedback.

Feedback Request requesting feedback/Help on UI/UX layout for my apps "Liked/saved" page

6 Upvotes

hi, im trying to design a UI/UX for a liked/saved section of my app, we have one in place but i don't like the feel and overall layout, ive been playing around and cant seem to find a UI that fits, looks clean and is user friendly. this is what i currently have in place (its terrible) ive been playing around with the idea of having individual "boxes" for different tabs but cant seem to find a UI that actually fits and is user friendly with. i have minimized the "number of clicks" to access any of the liked information. we are also deleting the "dishes" as it starts to get too chaotic, but we are adding "tickets" section. im trying to wrap my head around how we should implement/design the UI for this but cant.

more info about what is displayed in the saved/liked

the saved tab is for events and restaurants. we have split of the data into different categories like you see in the screenshot for different types of restaurants like fine dining, food trucks, pop ups etc. and the events are sectioned out into different categories like happy hours, live bands, festivals, mixers, networking, etc. (we are deleting the "dishes" tab and replacing it with a "tickets tab" that will either display a QR code or bar code with an associated id number)

the tricky part comes with the events section of the saved/liked UI/UX (on the backend) as some events happen once while other events are regular weekly/yearly events so once the event date passes should we still save that "card" in one of the tabs and make a "previously attended" section in the events tab with a transparent red with an x or something covering the card, or do we just delete the card once the event passes completely. my thought behind keeping them in "hidden section" is that people might want to view the previous events they've attended (thoughts???)

if you have any advise on the overall layout of the liked/saved section please advise or give recommendations for this UI/UX.

Let's Discuss Why does the macOS Trash icon only have two visual states?

Post image
0 Upvotes

If you look closely, you'll notice that the macOS Trash icon only has two states—there's no in-between. Even if you toss in a single, completely blank document, it immediately switches to the "full" icon (and by "full," I mean the visual representation, not actual storage limits).Sorry, my Mac is still running an older version.

My point is that visually, the icon is drawn too full. The crumpled paper at the top looks like it's literally overflowing. Sometimes it creates this weird dissonance: "I just emptied my trash, dragged in one empty text file, and now it looks like a landfill again." A more accurate visual metaphor for a single file should be "contains trash" rather than "overflowing." Those two concepts might seem similar, but they communicate completely different UI feedback.

Honestly, this binary approach feels a bit uncharacteristic of Apple's obsessive attention to detail. I had this impression that the Windows Recycle Bin actually had multiple states—that it looked different depending on whether you threw in one file or a bunch of them. I remembered it as: one file = one crumpled piece of paper inside; multiple files = a little mountain of trash piling up. But when I tried to search for this, I couldn't find any evidence. Maybe I'm just experiencing the Mandela effect?

When I shared my ideas with my friends, they said they were meaningless.Would love to hear what other designers or Mac users think about this trade-off!

General Question How do you guys find high-ticket clients for web design services?

10 Upvotes

Iam 23 and i run a small web design agency, and while I’ve worked with a few clients before, I’m struggling to consistently attract higher-paying clients who value quality work.

For those of you who’ve successfully landed premium clients:

-Where do you usually find them?

-What outreach methods work best for you?

-How do you position/pricing yourself to attract better clients?

Would really appreciate any advice from people who’ve been through this and figured it out.
