Dennis Cortes - Invidious

Dennis Cortes

This channel is all about design, code, music production, and just things I love in life. I try and share my opinions and experience freely with others to have discussions and to teach what I know! I currently lead the product design team at Mothership, produce music as Cordio, making a coffee app called Taste Notes, share thoughts on my blog, make products at Trademarked, make design and music tutorials, and run my Patreon.

I've been designing for 10+ years and coding for 4+ years. I specialize in design, mainly working in product design for both the web and mobile apps. I have extensive experience with both visual and interaction design, design systems, user research, branding, shipping products, React, CSS architecture, and component systems.

I also make music and have produced 10+ albums, blending elements from electronic, ambient, jazz, lofi, and hip-hop under the alias Cordio.
