[jhonnygil]

Me, as a software engineer that watches tons of content related to dev/design this is just the kind of videos I always wanted!! Congrats!

[maryamii]

This video is the reason why I chose to study IT in the university!! can't thank you enough for your inspiring videos Maisy!!!

[miyunasatoru]

I'm not even joking, this might be my favorite design and code video. It's just so chill and makes me relaxed. I'm learning to code by myself, and it's extremely stressful when I have to get the work done in time.
You made my life less heavy, and now I'm ready to watch other videos from you !

[TheKatherinesalvatie]

It’s just phenomenal how good these videos are! These are wonderful - especially learning to code myself these are very inspiring and calming when I’m overwhelmed by the learning process. You have such a great gift of bringing calm and warmth to us all. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and projects with us ✨

[cyberdaria]

I just want to say, I super greatly appreciate you sharing all of your content with us. As a baby programmer, it is so helpful and encouraging for me to see other women coding with expertise! I am so inspired by your code content 🥰 I'm even desgining my own little video game as a cute project. You are awesome, please keep doing your thing!!!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍

[damianrivas]

I love the way you broke down your design process. I'm just starting to dive into the design side of web development and this video gave me a lot of inspiration. Keep it up!

[yamiigoops]

I’m currently in art school, majoring in web and multimedia environments. I’ve been looking for web jobs to apply to and most of them say to do a lot what you are in this video. I never really understand what any of it meant until watching this so thank you!! This was honestly such a big help and inspiration!

[fmdasani]

You’re actually SO talented, I could feel the AURA of your website before I even opened the video. You can genuinely go aura for aura with any website and win

[droopysims]

The minimalist aesthetic IS SOOO WELL DONE!! Like everything flows soo WELLL

I'm an artist, but seeing your vlog on coding and designing is making me start learning web designing. 😆

The colours and accents showcase your personality well. I loved the animation of the designs.

Your videos always spark interest in me to learn new things.
