Skipping Figma at this stage made everything faster. No frames. No rulers. No component hunting.
Just intent.
2. Generating the hero visuals with Midjourney
Next step: the aesthetic.
I asked Midjourney for a photorealistic vibe that matches the product.
Something that would make sense as a hero background.
Here’s the prompt:
