This is my website! I love seeing everyone’s perspective, design is all about iteration and constant evolution. I have no doubt NLM will continue to evolve and change. I feel immensely lucky to have been there towards the beginning of that evolution.

As I designer I was trying to skate to where the puck was going technically. We’d get some insight on what was coming from the model side and we’d try to build UI around that future before it arrived. The labs team at Google has done a solid job of trying to build with that mentality.

We were in a mad dash for 1.5 years launching early and listening to user feedback then iterating our way to where the product landed. As I mentioned, those close to me knew how all consuming this process became. It was an amazing time taking a new product from 0 to 1 inside Google.

I Definitely never expected my portfolio site to make the rounds like this!

Just for my curiosity: are there any limitations to what Google IP you can write about in public like this?

I was wondering about this question as well.

Are u authorized to share all this IP?

Hi, there's a bug on your website.

Apparently it advertises to browsers and other extensions that it has dark mode activated when it's actually not, which prevents them from applying the appropriate theme.

That's a webdev trick for forcing light mode lol

Thank you for your hard work. I gripe about it sometimes but it’s still the most compelling learning experience I’ve ever come across. I hope it keeps getting better and better.

Resonates big time! At the end of the day, this isn't a full-proof science - it's an art. Req-con-fin(Requires continuous finessing).

I also assume, the project revolved around many roles and as you mentioned, the project was iteratively built around user feedback.

NLM disrupted the space and I know just like with the early days of bard/gemini this will only get insanely better; UI/UX especially.
