Design used to be brick by brick. Now it's chipping a sculpture out of marble. Same craft, opposite direction.

I want to share a preview of something I've been working on called Exact. It's a new Agent Native app framework written in Rust. It's extremely fast and tries to let you build exactly the experience you want with no compromises.

Code Layers is a blast. Bring your code-backed prototypes right onto the canvas to collaborate and riff with your team. Give it a spin!
We've been using it a bunch internally (to build Figma in Figma) and it's made AI prototyping so much more fun
Lots more to come here
Results are in! Another (subtle) majority believing that it's easier to teach/learn product strategy than visual design (last time 52/48, this time 58/42)
Lots of good comments in the replies too (e.g. easy to teach a little, but hard either way to be an expert)

I could not for the life of me find an Invisalign Travel Case that suited my needs.
So I made one, and 3D printed it.
Here's the file and my process behind it:

We live in a wild world now where if you can imagine it, you can make it.
Took nearly 20 revs to get the form factor right. Fits in my pocket and has everything I need.
