Design details worth pausing for

Shifting Emoji

Dynamic Favicon

A tiny icon that communicates page state across your entire browser, even when you're not looking directly at it.

Paste with Intent

Pasting a URL directly onto the canvas in Obsidian instantly creates a web embed card at the cursor's location. No menus, no dialogs, just immediate, contextual creation.

Anchored Scrolling

Raycast uses a scrolling threshold for list navigation. The selection moves down to a specific point, then locks in place while the list scrolls, providing a stable visual anchor and a clear sense of boundary when the end is reached.

Glassy Button

A pretty cool glassy button

Chat Minimap

A floating minimap keeps long conversations grounded by highlighting the active context as you scroll.

Delay Close Action for Promotional Info

Keep State in URL

Mono Card put all decoration and content info in the URL so you can directly copy-and-paste to others and they will see exactly same content instantly. What can be stored Filter Search query Sort order View mode (grid/list/table) Selected items Scroll position Theme and styling preferences Expanded/collapsed sections Why it resonates This design choice reflects a deep understanding of how people actually share information. When you find something useful and want to show someone else, you don't want to also send a list of instructions: "Click this tab, then filter by X, then scroll down to Y." You just want to share one link that works. By encoding the entire state in the URL, Mono Card eliminates the friction of reproduction. The recipient sees exactly what you see—no setup required, no "are you seeing what I'm seeing?" confusion. This makes collaboration feel effortless and builds trust that what you share is what they'll get. It also means your bookmarks are more valuable. A saved URL isn't just a destination; it's a snapshot of a specific view or configuration you found useful. You can return to exactly that state months later. Similar considerations Figma: Share a link to a specific frame with zoom level and comments visible—collaborators land exactly where you were Google Maps: URLs include location, zoom level, map type, and even Street View position and angle YouTube: Links can include timestamps, playlist position, and playback speed GitHub: URLs capture repository, branch, file, and even specific line numbers for code references Notion: Share links that open to specific blocks, with filters and views preserved Excalidraw: The entire drawing state is encoded in the URL, enabling instant sharing without accounts
