In this video I break down the full Codex workflow for designers: how to set up context so it stops generating generic output, how to use plugins (MCPs) and skills to shape the quality of what you get, and how to generate and iterate on a real UI from scratch. Then I give you my honest take on how Codex stacks up against Claude Code for design work. 📩 Business: griffin@griffinwooldridge.com 🌐 Connect with me! https://www.x.com/GriffinWDesigns https://www.instagram.com/griffinwooldridge1 https://www.tiktok.com/@griffin.wooldridge1 https://www.facebook.com/griffinwooldridge1 https://www.linkedin.com/in/griffinwooldridge/ https://www.griffinwooldridge.com/ 🔥 My top tools (some are affiliate links – thank you!): Base44 – https://base44.pxf.io/c/6539388/2477538/25619?sharedid=griffin&trafcat=hp Anything – https://anything.link/griffin-wooldridge Mobbin – https://mobbin.com/griffin Framer – https://framer.link/griffin-wooldridge Granola – https://go.granola.ai/griffin-wooldridge 00:00 – Intro 01:29 – Setup process 07:07 – First prompt 10:54 – Iteration 14:45 – Codex vs. Claude Code 16:16 – Outro #aidesign #uidesign #aitools #vibecoding
