Playground – Developer tool
Product + Engineering
Problem
Developers wanted a faster way to browse, customize, and copy Shadcn components without setting up local environments.
My role
Design, tweak, and copy Shadcn components with instant previews. Defined the component library structure, prioritized features based on developer feedback, and built the live editing experience with code export functionality.
Product decisions
- • Defined the component library structure for easy navigation.
- • Prioritized features based on developer feedback.
- • Built the live editing experience with code export functionality.
Impact / validation
