Back from eyeo working on the picture hanging arrangement generator in the backyard. Displaying the label letters on the pictures themselves seemed like a logical step but was too distracting, so they're gone now.

I'm going to do a show and tell of the picture hanging generator app at eyeo so I'm putting together inspiration slides. First up is Jon Gold's post about Declarative Design Tools.

More navigation signposting added to the picture hanging arranger algorithm.

I got the permutation explorer working well enough to add the generated arrangements back in.

Figuring out how to break the picture hanging permutations into levels.

Going to try making the report illustrations in Figma this time around.

On different metaphors for websites. A good reminder that you get to choose.

The Creative Independent let's editors highlight certain passages to draw attention. It's a really nicely-scoped annotation feature -- easy to understand what is happening for both the audience and different editors, without going down a rabbit-hole of pull-quote or formatting options. It also opens up the possibility of doing other things with those highlights.

I made a color cube.

I made a notebook to explore which colors pass the web accessibility contrast thresholds.
