I vibed a thing - OpenUX
Got fed up with pay-gated websites for design inspiration so I made my own — of course — powered by nostr.
Vibed it with Shakespeare initially, but then exported to VScode and let Cline at it.
What is OpenUX?
It’s a design “inspiration” website. Basically… designers sometimes don’t know how to design something, so they look at other apps. Well, it’s time consuming to install apps so there exist websites where designers (and developers) can simply look things up and get inspired for their own projects.
It is for designers and developers to look at how other apps approach various parts of the user experience and draw out ideas for their own.
In contrast to websites like Mobbin, OpenUX is free and open for anyone to upload. It encourages quality submissions and rewards them (poor submissions don’t get liked or commented, so they get reduced visibility). High quality submissions hopefully get more rewards.
Zap-enabled - every screen can be zapped! This is yet another way for designers and developers to get rewarded for their contributions.
While the app is not open sourced yet (it’s easier for me to make tweaks in this infancy stage), the events are nostr events so any other client can also create them and access them.
I’m using a custom kind for app showcases. OpenUX uses blossom uploads.
If you’re a designer, or a developer, you’re welcome to contribute, of course - anyone can contribute as well, but it helps knowing some design-related terminology when labeling the screenshots, otherwise it’ll be hard to find what a designer or developer might be searching for.
Let me know if you have any questions or comments!
As always, practice safe nsecs. THIS IS A VIBED APP. I have not vetted the code, don’t go slapping your pristine nsec all over it.
