Github for Designers

In plain words

GitHub for Designers is a version control and collaboration platform built specifically for design teams. Launched in 2012, it applies Git's version control principles to design files, allowing designers to track changes, manage iterations, and work together on projects. The tool is intended for design professionals who need the same workflow management capabilities that developers use for code, enabling teams to maintain organized design histories and coordinate work across multiple contributors.

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Favicon alert bubbles▲271

  A javascript library that allows easy manipulation of the favicon to include nice looking alert bubbles. This means that users can pin your site and still see when their attention is needed! It's been done before, but in my opinion not in a way aesthetically pleasing enough for production use. This library also falls back to the standard number in page title approach for browsers that do no support canvas / dynamic favicons. Thoughts welcome.
