Ilia Delin Switches Inspiration Library from Eagle to Atlas

X postIlia Delin11 October 2026Opinion

Ilia Delin announced a complete switch from Eagle to the Mac app Atlas for his inspiration library, praising Alexey Sekachov's design and the app's performance.

Key points

Ilia Delin migrated his inspiration library entirely from Eagle to Atlas (@atlasformac).
Delin argues that saving references is simple, but Atlas actually encourages returning to browse them.
The app is commended for its fast performance and interface design, created by Alexey Sekachov.

Why it matters

Asset and moodboard tools frequently suffer from passive hoarding without active reuse. High performance and polished aesthetics directly affect how often designers return to their collected references during real projects.

Analysis

Delin points to a common friction in reference management: collecting assets is easy, but returning to them requires an engaging user experience. Industry peers, including Abduzeedo, similarly singled out Sekachov's typography and clean interface design for both the Atlas application and its website.
