Designers who code, do you draw mocks before coding or do you yolo it and jump into code first? I jump into code first. Probs slower as I have no idea what I’m going for but I think it helps me get to better solutions in the long run.

That’s a balance that I could probs get better at ... would save me from smashing keys for hours until something good comes out.

I find a lot of visual finessing (padding, sizing) is easier in code than building all the auto layout stuff in Figma too

Oh totally! And I don’t bother mocking up interactions either .. way easier to explore in code.. and I’m probs more creative with it too
