Kickstart Design & Development with Forks 🍴

Today we’re announcing our community showcase — a place where you can showcase your creations and kickstart your design and development process by forking projects.

Showcased projects on share.haiku.ai

Inspired by project forks in software development, forking a project in Haiku makes a copy of it which you can freely experiment on, without affecting the original project.

Forking a project on share.haiku.ai

Forks represent a simple but powerful way learn from each other’s projects, kickstart your design and development process, or simply customise existing components.

Managing Forks🍴

Kudos animations, made in Haiku 🤘

When creating a project in Haiku, you now have the option to make your project private or public. Public projects are discoverable on your share.haiku.ai profile, and we’re regularly featuring our favourite haiku on the showcase homepage. Public projects can be viewed, forked, and installed by anyone.

You can also give kudos to each other’s projects to show your appreciation.

What’s new in Haiku

Aside from launching the community showcase, we’re also constantly improving and adding new features for designers and developers to Haiku for Mac. This spring, so far we’ve added:

Draggable timeline rows

Drag & drop timeline rows to manage draw order and better organise projects

Stage resizing from all sides

Resize the stage using transform controls on all sides

Custom origins

Scale and rotate from any point with custom origins

Multi select

Use Shift to make make multiple selections on stage

All new Autocomplete

In memory undo/redo

A more reliable and performant implementation of undo/redo

Proxy Settings

Custom proxy settings, enabling use on corporate networks

…along with support for Figma projects, hundreds of bug fixes and performance improvements across the board.

Looking forward

Today’s launch marks our first steps towards empowering users to experiment with each other’s creations in Haiku. We’re really excited about these features, and the foundation they provide to build a platform that allows you to do your best work.

We have lots more planned on this front, so stay tuned! If you’ve made it this far, you should head over to haiku.ai and get Haiku for Mac.
