What I'm building, what broke, and what I'd do differently. Written when there's something worth saying.
I'm not a designer. Here's how a lot of trial and error, and one very stubborn maroon, became TenderNest's whole visual identity.
TenderNest used to be called NoteNest. It took me longer than I'd like to admit to realise why that was the wrong name.
I got tired of building for engagement, so I didn't. Here's why TenderNest doesn't have a feed, a follower count, or anything to scroll.
What do you do when your partner's nest is empty and you want more notes from them? Turning that awkward silence into a small, gentle poke.
