Challenge Brief

No prompt. No restrictions. Just one rule.

Build something — anything — that solves a real problem you've personally experienced. It can be a website, an app, a design system, a Chrome extension, a Figma plugin, a poster, a video, a tool, a kit, a guide. Anything.

We want to see your judgment. What problem did you identify? Was it real? Is your solution actually good? Did you ship it?

This challenge is open to all tracks (Developer, UX, Graphics, anything else). The community votes on the most thoughtful, useful, and well-executed work.

What we're looking for:

  • A clearly stated problem ("I keep losing track of...", "It's annoying when...", etc.)

  • A solution that's actually built (not just designed)

  • Polish + craft

  • A 100-word writeup of why this matters

Examples to inspire (don't copy):

  • A Chrome extension that hides Twitter recommendations

  • A Figma plugin that auto-generates color palettes

  • A simple website that helps remote workers find quiet cafés

  • A printable journal page for managing creative burnout

  • A poster series for a real local cause
