joshsymbols··on Ask HN: Roast my startup landing page
Thanks for the feedback!

Indeed, that payment section needs to be more clear :)

Hey All :)

Before my team create a new promo video, please roast and give feedback on our current one for us to consider for our new one!

joshsymbols··on Show HN: Symbols > We are building Figma for developers
Thanks for the feedback. These are minor adjustments to make to the final landing, as some stuff was due to be replaced. Not a big deal. I will highlight those testimonial reactions to seeing the platform in action are real.

Do you have any further feedback? I’m thinking of a more clean/white space landing with much less text and more graphics to enforce key points. Kinda like Figma/creative tools.

1. What do you use to manage your UI kit / design system? Do you use Storybook, component libraries such as Tailwind, Supernova etc when working with designers? 2. Do you reuse the same components and customise them for new projects, but do you make new ones?

I’m curious as there are many problems with frontend reusability that many devs face on an on-going basis, with existing tools not properly solving them.

My startup is working on a solution by making “Figma for developers, but where you can build, test & document 100% functional & reusable UI kits for any web project”

Landing: Here is a quick landing put together, with a better one in the works :)

Noted :) Thanks for the feedback
joshsymbols··on Show HN: We made a platform that allows you to build UI kits in days not months
Thanks :)

Any feedback let me know!

It contains code :) However later on we will offer code to design, with two-way syncing between Symbols and Figma. Since this will allow designers to work with a properly structured design file with correct layers, like in code.

Think of Symbols as “Figma for developers”, whereby you can build, test, document and interact with fully functional UI kits on a canvas with an advanced design system. You can publish pages as a website inside the platform, or export any part of your project/UI kit to your existing tech stack. You aren’t vendor locked.

Oh not great to hear that!

Can you please confirm if you are referring to the landing page or the actual platform itself?

joshsymbols··on Show HN: We made a platform that allows you to build UI kits in days not months
Noted! :)

Aside from performance, do you have any feedback on the content of the landing. Is it clear and does it hook you?

Thanks

Yes, it can run projects with using existing frameworks, both if its Restful API or also it can be embedded into Tailwind UI.

Symbols was built to enhance your existing tech stack, with open source development. Not to force you to leave it, or vendor lock you.
