Open Sourcing 200 Zest Icons

I like to describe Zest as a modern icon set that has been meticulously handcrafted for web and mobile. What makes Zest exceptional is the attention to detail. Zest was created with bold and simple aesthetic. It purposefully emulates the friendly styles of applications like Whimsical and the new Jira. The lines are thick so that they stand out. The geometry is rounded and exaggerated. Lined icons instead of solid shapes give the set a remarkable consistency.

I build web applications for a living. And while I love working on software, there is something temporary about the work. Very little of what I make lasts for any length of time. The pace that software evolves is so rapid that 10 years out and what remains is either so dated that I wouldn’t put it in my portfolio or it has evolved so much that little remains from the original design.

Quiddity interviews you about your tools and process, then generates custom /new-issue, /next-task, and /approve skills tailored to how you actually work. One install, one setup command, and you're off.

I built an autonomous research assistant using Claude scheduled tasks and ContextStore. It scans my projects, picks topics itself, and delivers a daily brief every morning. Karpathy recently posted about a similar workflow in Obsidian — nice validation that this pattern is taking hold.
