Sketching for UX Newsletter Issue #40 — favorite design resources I discovered last month (March, 2026)
Hey dear subscriber,
This issue is about
How to win a free WebExpo ticket
Easter Eggs in Design - the newest UX knowledge sketch
10 + 1 design resources I loved the most in March
🎉Win a free ticket for WebExpo
My favorite design conference, WebExpo, is coming very soon, and the organizers offered me a free ticket to give away to my subscribers & followers.
The event has truly awesome vibes, each time I attended it in-person (2018, 2019 and 2023), I felt that I belong to a tribe of like-minded professionals working on digital products & services.
⭐ How the raffle works:
To win a free ticket, do these 2 things:
subscribe to the WebExpo newsletter, and send me a screenshot as proof to this email: startheredesigner@gmail.com (if you are already a subscriber, send me a screenshot of that) and
answer this question in the same email: “Which speaker are you most excited about?”
Check the date and location (May 27-29, Prague, Czechia), and only participate in the contest if you’d surely attend the event!
The contest is open until next Tuesday (21st of April) 23:59 CEST
The winner will be randomly selected on the 22nd of April, Wednesday
(Some conditions: the ticket is for the conference days, not for the individual premium workshops. The ticket is not transferable, not refundable. The cost of transportation and accommodation is not included.)
✏️ Easter Eggs in Design
The new sketch is about hidden features, messages, interactions, pleasant surprises waiting for users to discover them.
Here is an example Easter Egg I created: if you go to the Dev Basics website, enter the Doom cheat code for god mode, and see what happens :) (alternatively, here is a 10-sec long video of it)
As always, I’m going to publish a more detailed article, you’ll find it here soon.
(And also on TERV.DEV, a new website I’m building together with Gergely Szerovay)
✏️ Favorite resources
Here are my favorite discoveries of March, 2026:
#1 Designing with Claude Code by Steve Schoger
The author of Refactoring UI, one of my all time favorite designers, Steve Schoger has started creating content again 🎉
Btw. keep an eye on Steve’s and Adham Wathan’s new project, too.
#2 Cameron Worboys - Inside an AI-native design org - a Dive Club interview by Ridd
Cameron Worboys is a huge inspiration, I loved his talk at Hatch Conference last year. I saw him live on stage at George Conf 2023, he talked about how they redesigned Wise.
In this podcast episode he shares e.g. the #1 trait that Cam looks for in design hires and how more than 90% of designers at Cash are shipping PRs.
#3 A Curated Gallery of Creative Error Page Designs
Find inspiration for your next 404 page design with this curated collection of error pages
#4 Building an animation course by Emil Kowalski
”This article is a summary of me working on this course over the last 2 years. How I thought about its content, design, marketing, and more.”
Btw. the course is open for enrollment for some more days (it is not an affiliate link, I just really appreciate Emil’s work, and I also enrolled in his course)
#5 Efficient.app by Alex Bass and Andra Vomir
Making great software easy to discover - “We help founders, operators, and teams discover apps that actually work.”
#6 Dezi.gallery by Nguyễn Chung Tuyến, Dinh Như and Tai Ngo
The Design Inspiration Hub - curated collection of top design inspirations, tools, and resources
#7 Modal vs. Separate Page: UX Decision Tree by Vitaly Friedman
This is a topic I’m really passionate about, since it very much influences the core user experience. My sketch about modals in user interfaces
#8 Taste isn’t a screenshot by Anton Sten
”Taste, in the sense that actually matters, is the accumulation of those decisions. Not the screenshots you’ve saved. The calls you’ve made — especially the ones where you chose not to build something.”
#9 10 Principles for Fluid UI by Karl Koch
”There’s a quality that separates the interfaces we tolerate from the ones we love. […] The quality is fluidity. The feeling that an interface has physical weight. That elements respond like real objects. That the gap between your finger and the screen has collapsed to nothing.” With interactive demos like this:
#10 ColorFlow by ls.graphics
Mesh gradient creator tool (free)
+1 Geometry Club by by Dave Mullen Jnr.
An architecture photography project on Instagram where people from around the world follow the guidelines, submit their photos, and join the club.
