Meng To - How to build your ideas with AI

One of the most impressive things I’ve seen a designer make all year is Meng To’s Dreamcut.

It’s the perfect example of what it looks like to transition from traditional designer to builder 💪 So if you’re interested in becoming a designer who ships then this is the episode for you.

Meng gives a highly practical breakdown of what it looks like to go from 0 to 50,000+ lines of code as a designer. And Meng is the perfect person to onboard you into tools like Claude and Cursor because he’s spent 10+ years teaching designers how to code through Design+Code. So in this episode we go deep into:

  • Meng’s tech stack and go-to AI tools
  • How to fine-tune visual details in code
  • The secret to an effective first 10 prompts
  • How to find the perfect first project to build
  • How much code you need to know to build with AI
  • What parts were easier/harder than Meng expected
  • Why Meng considers Claude the newest design tool
  • a lot more…
