UX/UI Design • Open Source • Digital Products

Hi, I'm Denis Dyakov

I'm a UX/UI designer working on thoughtful digital products, web interfaces, product flows, visual systems, and clean user experiences for companies, teams, and independent projects.

Alongside my professional design work, I build and maintain open-source tools focused on education, creative workflows, privacy, and productivity.

I care about interfaces that feel clear, calm, and useful — products that are simple to understand, pleasant to use, and built with attention to structure, details, and long-term maintainability.

What I do

  • UX/UI design for web and digital products
  • Product flows, wireframes, prototypes, and interface concepts
  • Visual design systems, components, and interface guidelines
  • Landing pages, dashboards, SaaS interfaces, and product websites
  • Design thinking, usability improvements, and product polish
  • Local-first open-source tools with clear UX and practical use cases

Professional focus

I design digital products that help users move through complex flows with less friction.

My work usually focuses on:

  • clear information architecture
  • simple and understandable user flows
  • clean visual hierarchy
  • reusable UI components
  • responsive layouts
  • accessible interface patterns
  • thoughtful product presentation

Maintained open-source projects

I maintain small, practical open-source tools that connect my design background with real product needs.

TutorDesk

A local-first workspace for private tutors and small educators.

TutorDesk helps tutors track students, lessons, homework, recurring mistakes, progress, and reports without sending student data to third-party servers.

Focus areas:

  • education workflows
  • student progress tracking
  • local-first data storage
  • privacy-conscious reports
  • accessibility and responsive UX

DesignShelf

A local-first design library for UX/UI designers.

DesignShelf helps designers organize fonts, color palettes, design systems, UI references, copy snippets, inspiration, and project kits in a private searchable workspace.

Focus areas:

  • UX/UI design workflows
  • design systems and design tokens
  • project-kit organization
  • searchable creative references
  • optional future AI/model-assisted tagging and brief generation with user control

ReadLaterCleaner

A privacy-friendly browser extension for cleaning and organizing read-later links.

ReadLaterCleaner helps users save, review, tag, archive, deduplicate, and export links without analytics or a remote backend.

Focus areas:

  • productivity
  • browser workflows
  • local storage
  • backlog cleanup
  • Markdown and JSON export

Design principles

  • Clarity before decoration
  • Structure before visual polish
  • Good UX should reduce effort, not add complexity
  • Interfaces should feel calm, useful, and understandable
  • Visual systems should help products scale
  • Privacy-friendly tools should be useful without forcing accounts or cloud storage

Current focus

  • Working on UX/UI design for digital products and web interfaces
  • Improving TutorDesk as a practical open-source tool for independent educators
  • Developing DesignShelf as a useful local design library for UX/UI designers
  • Maintaining public roadmaps, issues, pull requests, releases, and documentation
  • Exploring optional, user-controlled AI/model-assisted workflows where they can improve real product use cases
  • Keeping my projects simple, understandable, and useful from the first release
