Vincent - Your one-stop inbox for design and frontend news.

Hey Hunters! Tamas, co-founder and curator of Vincent here. We're excited to announce the first public release of Vincent. We started building Vincent as an experiment to provide a better experience for getting hand-picked design and frontend articles and resources. It could be a great alternative to curated design newsletters. Our MVP is available in the App Store and ready to be used from today. In the next couple of months we're continuously improving the application and rolling out new features such as bookmarking, following interest, customizing notification, dark mode and so on. Versions for Android, macOS and the Web are coming soon. Stay tuned!

The App Store listing feels very misleading considering all 6 features in the screenshots are currently missing from the app (personalised inbox, browse by category, smart notifications, bookmark links, search archive and dark mode). Meanwhile “premium” is already being advertised in the app? For an app targeting a design-focused audience, it’s also odd there’s no permission priming but the app instead launches straight into a notification permission prompt. Bottom 3 product design topics show up with a black title on a black background when tapped, while “Comprehensive” seems to be completely empty. Embedded web content doesn’t seem to render underneath the status bar on iPhone X and newer devices when scrolling (as in Safari and other apps) – status bar stays white, like with the recent curated blog post from Brad Frost.

@tamassari This looks like a great app, designers can easily navigate and find the top articles relevant to their interests, surely this will help to keep updated with the top trends, resources and articles. 👍👍

Congrats Tamas! Makes total sense to catalog the best design articles in a searchable/browsable app. Wishing y'all the best 👏

It bothers me more than it should that it's called Vincent, and no one actually named Vincent works on the project. Hahaha Jokes aside, congrats on the launch! Looks great!

Yo, I love the design and it seems like a cool product that could really help. Being able to get news on design and frontend would prolly keep people up on trends, is there an Android version?

I have always been waiting for something like this.

Congrats on the launch, super clean branding, love the name - downloaded and rated! Minor piece of feedback - the title for the "topics" tab and when tapping into a topic look super squished to the top of the phone on taller phones (iPhone 11 here)

Man! I read all your HeyDesigner newsletter, everyday! The Vincent project is awesome, i'm loving the app. Wishing all the best!

Reader of the weekly digest of the HeyDesigner newsletter here, who enjoys every issue. Just here to support and curious to see where this goes as someone who's experimenting with my own newsletter :)

What do you plan to do with HeyDesigner? And congrats with the launch!

Love this! How are you curating topics? Would be nice to have a 'Submit' button to help the community curate articles. Also, who is doing the illustrations? These are great.

The name is awesome

Really useful app, any ETA on Android version?
