Recently, I worked on a blog filtering system for a Webflow project where the goal was to keep the experience clean, fast, and intuitive.
Instead of building everything from scratch, I used Finsweet’s CMS Filter to handle the logic. It made the whole process much smoother—allowing me to create dynamic category-based filtering (like Lifestyle, Treatment, In The Press, etc.) without heavy custom code.
The key focus was performance and usability:
• Instant filtering without page reload
• Clean UI with clear active states
• Scalable structure for future content
Finsweet really shines when you want powerful functionality while keeping Webflow maintainable. This setup is flexible, client-friendly, and easy to expand later.
A simple solution—but done right, it makes a big difference in how users explore content.😍

Where being a Creative Dev actually makes sense👇
A client recently told me something:
“Everything is there… but something feels off.”
Sometimes the product is solid and the design is well-structured, but the experience just doesn't land. It feels flat and, above all, easy to forget.
That’s exactly where our role as Creative Devs shifts from technical to narrative. It’s not about "decorating"; it’s about fixing the flow.
For this project definitely one of my favorites from my first year as a freelancer we used Webflow, GSAP, and Spline to build what was missing: the pacing.
- Guiding the eye with transitions that feel natural.
- Connecting sections so the scroll doesn't feel like a series of jumps.
-Simplifying the complex through interactions that react to the user.
It’s amazing how the same message changes completely when you stop just "showing" and start "communicating" through motion.
After 12 months of going solo, these are the projects that remind me why I chose this path.
Oww this is so good.
I love the spheres, how you did them? Spline?
AI products don’t lose users because of features. They lose them because they look like experiments.
For Newly, we designed a landing page concept that communicates speed and credibility from the first screen. Newly lets users create mobile apps from AI prompts and publish directly to the App Store and Google Play — so the design had to feel structured, clean, and production-ready.
We built a clear layout system with strong hierarchy and used 3D animation to add depth without clutter.
This was created with a design subscription from FANCY — and yes, we’re currently open to new projects.
Looks Amazing 🔥
