为设计师和工程师提供帮助构建更好的用户界面。

判断自己在动画或设计方面是否做出了正确的选择，这很难。这些技能旨在帮助你更快做出正确的决定。

这些经验基于我在Vercel和Linear等公司的多年工作经验。

这里的所有技能都是领域专长的副产品。AI并不能取代这些专长，它放大你能获得的，让你相对于别人更强。

所以学习编程、设计，或者在其他领域积累专业知识。这非常有价值。

你将在这里积累动画专业知识：

为什么要用它？

经纪人品味不好

我见过很多次代理没有选对动画的元素。比如回车动画用了ease-in缓和，而实际上应该是ease-out（原因如下）。或者他们选择了实心边框而不是半透明阴影。

这些小细节叠加起来，让你的界面要么非常出色，要么…并不怎么样。

Skills For Design Engineers

For designers and engineers to help them build better user interfaces.

Knowing whether you made a right choice when it comes to animations, or design in general, is hard. These skills aim to help you get to those right decisions faster.

They are based on my years of experience working at companies like Vercel and Linear.

All the skills here are a side-effect of domain-expertise. AI doesn’t replace such expertise, it amplifies what you can get out of it and makes you way better relative to others.

So learn to code, design, or develop expertise in any other field. It’s extremely valuable.

Why use it?

Agents don’t have great taste

I have seen plenty of times that agents don’t pick the right ingredients for an animation. An ease-in easing for an enter animation when it’s supposed to be ease-out (here’s why). Or they choose a solid border instead of a semi-transparent shadow.

All these little things compound and make your interface either amazing, or just… not that great.

As explained in Agents with Taste, these skills list all the little mistakes agents can potentially make and explain how to fix them.

This is your shortcut to great interfaces. A shortcut to stand out in a sea of slop.
