Resources · Things I build and share

I don't just talk about the machine. I build parts of it in public.

Everything here is real, live, and free to explore. Each piece exists to prove a point about how design organisations can work: faster, more consistent, and more accountable to the business. This page grows as I build.

Optimistic Design System

A complete, token-based design system: 57 components, a Core, Semantic, and Theme token architecture, foundations for colour, typography, spacing, and grid, and a full documentation site with live demos.

Built solo, using the AI workflows I install in design organisations. That's the point of it. I claim design orgs can run 2-3x faster with AI in the loop; this is what one operator can stand up alone with the same playbook. Explore the components, read the token structure, and judge the operating leverage for yourself.

The shelf is just getting started.

Whatever I build lands here. On the bench right now: playbooks from the frameworks I run companies on, and tools from the consulting work. If you want to know when something new ships, the writing is the best signal.
