Hallo, I'm Lucas Fischer, a full-stack design engineer creating playful apps with intentional haptic and audio design that feel like popping bubble wrap. I love working on projects of all kinds in my spare time, so lucas.love is my space to share everything I create beyond my professional work.

At Futureland we want to support link previews like on Twitter or other social networks. One of our goals is to increase the share frequency on our platform.
