I'm pretty bad at a lot of things but one thing I've (accidentally or not) have been pretty good at is being early at trends A lot of these trends are in my head in some way and I wanted to visualize those on a chart. So I built another dynamic blog post (on my new vibecoded blog platform that lets me do these kinds of pages) with this chart above. The first disclaimer of course is this is completely subjective and essentially a chart based brain dump. And the second disclaimer is I don't think I'm right, it's just my own beliefs visualized! I'll keep updating the chart You can select different trends on the legend or by clicking on a line, and you can also go fullscreen! Also you can select [x] indexed view which is pretty cool too :D Let me know what I should add or change!

I'm open-sourcing my Agent Skills library. 75 skills for Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and other agents, focused on web design, landing pages, motion, WebGL, UI styles, and assets. A few favorites: - Video to Super Prompt Turns a screen recording of a design, landing page, or animation into a super detailed prompt that Fable 5 can one-shot into HTML. - HTML to Interaction Prompts Takes an existing HTML page, like something built in Aura, and extracts prompts for sections, buttons, animations, WebGL effects, and interactions. - Stitched Full Page Capture Captures the entire landing page, not just the hero, so you can use the full page as a design reference. - Daily UI Inspiration Combines multiple skills into an agent loop that browses the web, captures great landing pages, and turns them into detailed prompt packs. It's free. Fork them and adapt for your own workflow.

SCOOP: Perplexity is quietly building an AI coding tool that takes on Claude Code and Cursor. It's meant to build software end-to-end. The tool is being used internally (for now) under the codename 'Teammate.'
