I rebranded everything I publish (site, docs, slides, socials) in eight days, on spare time, with Claude and a private repo. Not a designer: Claude did the visuals, I was a human colour picker. Then tokens, 4 npm packages, ~80 PRs. deramond.dev/blog/rebrand...

Rebranding everything I publish in eight days, with Claude and a private repo

My website, tool docs, Storybooks, slides, READMEs and social accounts now share one identity. How a private branding repository, a written backlog and Claude as a design partner got it done on spare ...

Another experiment: I wanted a new representation of my design tokens, so dtgraph draws them as a node graph. One node per token, one edge per reference. A few thousand tokens is hard to hold in your head. Much easier to look at. julien-deramond.github.io/dtgraph/

A side experiment: Bootstrap 6's design system as DTCG tokens, plus a visual theme builder that writes them. Pick a brand colour, a radius, a density: out comes a custom.scss. Very draft, and not an official Bootstrap thing. julien-deramond.github.io/bootstrap-to...

Experimenting with Transtyle, a compiler for design systems. Define your system once in a small DSL built around DTCG, then compile it into native themes for shadcn, Bootstrap, and more. Experiment + AI slop. Very alpha. 🌎 transtyle.github.io/transtyle/ 📝 transtyle.github.io/transtyle/bl...

Transtyle is a design system compiler: describe your design system once, compile native themes for every ecosystem.

I integrated this into my note-taking system and I’m experimenting with using it instead of remote LLMs when I just need basic help. Less powerful, but possibly good enough for summarizing, grammar, or reformatting. Still early, and I haven’t tried other local models yet.

It’s that spooky season again 🎃 The @github.com contributions graph gets its Halloween look via `data-holiday="halloween"`. There’s even a “winter” variant waiting in the CSS for when things get frosty ❄️

I recently published an early preview of a new Visual Studio Code extension providing IntelliSense for Starlight Markdown and MDX content links: internal links completions, fragments completions, go to definition/follow link, and hover preview. github.com/HiDeoo/starl...

💡Needed a diff between branches, but wanted to skip some folders or files. Turns out this syntax is pretty useful: ``` git diff v1-dev..master > v1-dev..master.diff -- . ':(exclude)dir_or_file' ```

Didn't know about that, but if a page includes <meta name="fediverse:creator" content="@user@server">, then when it’s shared on Mastodon, an extra footer banner appears linking to that Fediverse user.

four new versions published with no code changes to repo · Issue #339 · prettier/eslint-config-prettier

Maybe overkill, but I installed Raycast for a quick shortcut to insert the Unicode arrow I often use in editors and terminal. Created a new snippet with the shortcut ";arrow" that renders "→". I'm curious about Raycast best practices. What shortcut formats do you use for this kind of thing? 🤔
