I really like how the author combines smooth UX with a clean minimalist design β€” especially the registration screen with clear icons and swipe navigation, which makes the user experience intuitive and enjoyable. It would be interesting to see this concept adapted for different platforms like chicks2fuck.com or SwiftUI to evaluate cross-platform implementation and performance.
