• Tell HN: My Favorite Tools

  A few apps that are a joy to use: https://ia.net/writer for writing. https://usecontrast.com/ for checking contrast. https://sipapp.io/ for picking colors. https://nova.app/ for editing code. https://cleanshot.com/ for screenshots. https://getpixelsnap.com/ for measuring elements on screen. https://netnewswire.com/ for reading things via RSS. https://panic.com/transmit/ for file transfers. https://usefathom.com/... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Ask HN: Best UI design courses for hackers?

  I think the best practical approach for designing UIs is to download (and buy) Balsamic[0] and use that to design UIs. Cut through the nonsense of colours and pixels in the first instance and just lay things out logically and simply. [0] https://balsamiq.com. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Build Products that don’t SUCK

  Create a low-fidelity mockup or wireframe of your MVP using tools like Balsamiq, Sketch, or Figma. Or use an easier-to-use tool like Uizard, which also has text-to-design capabilities. Source: 11 months ago

• Starting Design Work in a Spreadsheet

  Just for drawing mock app screens, I have found Balsamiq[0] to be pretty good (you can do a bunch of stuff with the trial version itself). Not affiliated with them in any way. [0]: https://balsamiq.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Is there software for building out copywriting for a website?

  Balsamiq has been pretty good for me so far. It's super bare-bones so it's better for copy mockups than actual UX design. It's also a lot easier than Figma. Note that you don't have to use the default comic sans, but I do because it's funny. Source: over 1 year ago

• Anxious about my future as an Engineer: Rant and advice seeking

  Https://triplebyte.com/ used to be a dead easy way to get a bunch of offers from startups if you do well on triplebyte's testing. Have you tried that? Source: almost 2 years ago

• What do you consider a “junior” level position? Clearly I’m wrong after trying to find my first SWE job

  Try triplebyte.com. That's how I got my first job as a self taught. Others wouldn't even give me a chance because I don't have a college degree or internship, let alone in CS. Source: about 2 years ago

• New recruit flunked training: unrealistic expectations, him lying or a bit of both?

  Next time have them sign up for a https://triplebyte.com account and do a python test, or leetcode or similar, and ask to see the results? Source: over 2 years ago

• Offered a front-end dev job but I fear I have imposter syndrome.

  I know, at least here in the States (don't know your local), that software eng hiring is super competitive. There are plenty of companies out there, and a lot of turned to remote or hybrid hiring. Even if you are happy with your current work, it's never a bad idea to shop around. Some platforms for job seeking that I've seen entry or mid-level engineers have success with are triplebyte.com and hired.com. Source: over 2 years ago

• Where's the best place to be if looking for a coding job?

  I used this site last time I got a new job https://triplebyte.com/. Source: over 2 years ago
