Moxxy becomes expressive
After a year-long hiatus, I'm back to working on the #Moxxy user interface. This time, I've added an onboarding process for new users and redesigned the home screen, which is now cleaner and offers more features.

A lot has happened since I last worked on Moxxy, the most important for us today being the release of Material 3 Expressive. I personally love the direction Google is taking by making the UI fun for users (and designers!) while still focusing on and improving ease of use and readability.
Hi fellow @penpot users!
I made a small #python script that converts JSON files exported from the official Material Theme Builder into Penpot-compatible token files.
Very useful if you want to try multiple color schemes!

I'm constantly impressed by Android 16, and the Material Expressive UI is a genuine leap forward. 👏
The new motion physics make everything from swiping to dismissing notifications feel so fluid and natural. You can tell the design team at Google put in a lot of research to make the OS feel more personal.
Major props to the entire team at Google. You absolutely nailed it!
Material Expressive theme for miniflux
I love rss. Until Aug 17, 2025, I used netnewswire with icloud syncing to read all the rss feeds that I’ve been collecting and curating since 2002. On Aug 17, 2025, I decided to try self hosting my rss feed parser using miniflux. It’s a neat little open source, fully free service that can be hosted on docker.
It also supports adding your own css so you can make it look the way you want. I created a light and dark theme for it based on material 3 expressive.
Check out the repo and star if you like it.
