Our latest Tech Take episode gets into one of the most overlooked parts of product design: loading states. As designers, we love to obsess over finished screens, but the in-between moments are where trust is built (or lost).

It's often where design intent meets dev reality. Miss the mark, and the product feels clunky or broken. Nail it, and even a 10-second wait feels intentional.

We break down the edges of the skeleton pattern, why “designing for max states” matters, and how designers can push creativity without losing sight of what’s technically possible.

If you’re a designer who wants to understand the real interplay between design and development, this one’s for you. Check out the full episode here and let us know what you think! www.youtube.com/watch?v=qa5n...
