Recent
Daily-curated feed of websites, OG images, app icons, tools and agent skills
Tier A · StrongGalleryDirectoryReferencerecent.design
Recent is a curated design-inspiration index run by @senyil that took over from Godly, the website gallery it explicitly replaces. It splits into five galleries — a mixed Design feed, Websites, OG Images, App Screenshots and App Icons — plus three directories: Tools (with negotiated discount codes), Skills (installable Claude/agent design skills ranked by install count) and a paid Jobs board. Founded in 2023 as a collection of design work posted on X, it was relaunched in 2026 with a broader remit and now claims 250k+ monthly visitors and 25k+ newsletter subscribers.
For an agent
Use this as the human-taste layer before you generate a marketing page — pull the Websites categories (AI, Agency, Portfolio, SaaS, Ecommerce, Startup, Product, Technology, Finance, Food & Drink, Music, Art, Photography, Architecture, Health, Education, Entertainment, Web3, Crypto, Editorial, Personal) to find a directionally right reference, then describe it rather than copying it. /skills is the most agent-relevant page: it indexes installable design skills such as anthropics/canvas-design, vercel-labs/web-design-guidelines and pbakaus/polish with live install counts, so it doubles as a discovery feed for your own tooling. Note that the site 403s a bare fetch and every gallery is screenshot-only — send a normal browser User-Agent, and expect no machine-readable metadata about the sites it features.
Why it is here. It absorbed Godly's role as the default website-inspiration gallery and then went wider — OG images, iOS icons and App Store screenshots are all under-served categories, and the Skills directory is the only curated index of design-focused agent skills.
