DEFAULT IT OR DESIGN IT

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

A designer used to waste time polishing edge cases before the core product flow was even solid. Now he asks one question for every UI decision: "Default it or design it?" “Default It” means using existing solutions when details don't need to shine. “Design It” means spending creative energy where it can differentiate. This simple framework helped him stop sweating minor details and focus on what actually matters for shipping faster.
