  • Sketching on paper vs. sketching in code
  • Why shipping quality software is like camping
  • How Raphael identified the MVP of the problem
  • What it was like building Cron in YC during COVID
  • Why you should design dialogues as first-class citizens
  • Why Raphael didn’t invest much in the Cron landing page
  • The differences between a design toolkit and a design system
  • a lot more lessons from a successful first-time design founder
