Adhd Design Expert
Built for designing interfaces that work with ADHD brains instead of against them. You get specific patterns like wizard flows for working memory limits, visual countdown timers for time blindness, and celebration animations for dopamine-driven engagement. The neuroscience quick reference alone is worth having around. It pairs neuroscience research with concrete UX solutions and includes an audit checklist to catch cognitive load traps before shipping. The anti-patterns section is refreshingly honest about what not to do, like vague time language and punishment mechanics that trigger rejection sensitivity. If you're building anything for neurodivergent users or just want to reduce friction for everyone, the principles here translate well beyond ADHD-specific contexts.
