What Makes an Interface Feel Great?
I think a lot about what makes an interface feel great.
When you go from using a good product to a great one, you can feel the difference. It's often hard to point to what makes it though.
It's usually not a single thing, but instead a lot of small things that add up.

Great design is invisible. It guides users without them ever noticing.

In the age of artificial intelligence, shipping fast is no longer an advantage. When anything can be replicated in minutes, just building something isn't enough.
Products that are going to stand out and last are those that are built extremely well, with intent and extraordinary care.
That's what Interfaces focuses on.
About Interfaces
I love writing and sharing what I learn. Articles on my website have been read more than one million times. It makes me very happy that people find them useful.
Interfaces is where I share everything I know and continue to learn about building great interfaces.
I cover a variety of topics from animation and typography to layout, color and everything else that is a part of building a great interface.

Nice to meet you, I'm Jakub
I'm a founding design engineer at Interfere. I write articles about a variety of design engineering topics on my website and I built oklch.fyi.
I care deeply about craft and quality and I like to make people feel something through my work. I'm obsessed with details and I often spend an unreasonable amount of time on them.
Previously, I worked at OpenSea and a few other companies. You might have seen some of my work on Twitter or my code on GitHub.
