This is great. This is one of the things that got me into programming, but as I’ve advanced the distance between idea and manifestation has gotten larger.
I can deal with it but I know for a fact many of the things I’ve done are poorer for it because playing and experimenting is so expensive.
Obviously the linked YouTube has an impressive thesis, presentation, and handful of demos; at the very least inspired Figma’s design principles per one of the cofounders, which within 10 years went from an idea based on shifts in technology to a 20 billion dollar acquisition by Adobe.
That said, do feel like it’s missing more guidance on actual expectations, how-to guides, etc. Even forcing someone to watch a video is a huge ask; obviously still worth it, but to me points to the paradox it presents itself.
