introducing namethatui.coma dictionary for ui things you can see but can’t namemade it because i’m primarily a designer, and my biggest resistance was always knowing what things are called when prompting my agents

the amount of times I've told a coding agent “make it look like the thing with the dots” is embarrassing
This solves a problem most designers don't realize they have. Half the battle isn't finding inspiration, it's knowing what to call the UI pattern so you can search or prompt for it. Simple idea, but genuinely useful.
amazing resource that highlights just how much of a roadblock our (in)ability to adequately describe things can be. great work
This feels like a missing piece of the AI design workflow.
“name that” is such a nice concept so we stop asking the LLM to make things “pretty” or “professional” or “polished”
What a NEAT tool, never in a million years I would have though to search for such a tool! Thanks, will use this to enhance my project's UI!!
dude you can't imagine how helpful is this
This is such a great idea! It’s fascinating how much more reliable AI output is when you know how to ask for it
this is great. sending to my designer friends
This is really smart, I always end up describing a button instead of just naming it.
aha this is so useful, I had to go through shadcn components and learn what they’re all called
amazing! wish this existed when i started vibe coding
Say who you are and what you make. We’ll confirm your line, link and picture over email, and if the fit is right you can be live the same day.
Goes straight to the maker’s inbox. No list, no tracking.
