When you do a pet project, what knowledge have you most often lacked? (alien.top)

I'm a backender and my main headache is design and front end. I've always focused on what the program "does" rather than how it "looks". But with experience I've realized that this is so-so and if I want (and I do) to show my designs to someone other than my cat, I'd better make the app look pretty.

Do you have similar problems? If you have, share how you solved them =)

Im in the same exact boat. Im a backend guy, i whip up the API and datastorage stuff real easy but then i smack my head against the desk for weeks to get a dated af looking UI slapped together. I recently found the Mantine UI react component library tho and im liking it.
