@shadcn — sidebar.tsx: 25 components for every sidebar shape
Introducing sidebar.tsx—25 components to help you build all kinds of sidebars.
I don't like building sidebars. So I built 30+ of them. All types. Then simplified the core into sidebar.tsx—a strong foundation to build on top of.
It works with Next.js, Remix, Vite & Laravel.
Smart move to extract this from the mess. Sidebars sound trivial until you actually need one — collapsible, nested nav, icon-only mode, mobile drawer — and every app ends up reinventing the same wheel with slightly different bugs. Shipping 25 variants first and distilling them into a single composable foundation is the right sequence. The multi-framework support (Next.js, Remix, Vite, Laravel) means it's not locked into one ecosystem.
@felixleezd — Duolingo on how to win with gamified design
Duolingo on how to win with gamified design:
That's interesting because the Duolingo design system has been studied to death but rarely broken down mechanically. The gamification isn't just streaks — it's a precise combination of loss aversion, variable reward, and social pressure. Worth reading if you're building anything with retention loops, even outside of language learning.
@septiipuji — Hero section composition study
Another hero section in the bag 👜
Honestly just saved this one to reference later. A well-composed hero section is harder than it looks — getting the hierarchy, spacing, and CTA placement right without it feeling like a template takes real work. The screenshots show clean typographic weight and a layout that doesn't fight itself.
@lukemiler — 40 free sites to promote your startup, sorted by domain rating
40 websites to promote your startup and get free backlinks.
Used by Y Combinator (YC) startups.
Sorted by domain rating (DR) 👇
Makes sense to have this list ready before you need it. Most founders discover these sites one at a time through Google after launch — having them pre-sorted by DR means you can prioritize the high-authority submissions first and work down. Not everything on lists like this is worth the effort, but a few high-DR listings can meaningfully move the needle for a new domain.
