Reveal. Obfuscate. Two buttons. Two states. One principle: interactive design should communicate purpose.
Building micro-interactions that feel natural is what separates good design from great design. Made entirely in Framer.

Neon Flow — A Smooth UI Motion Component for Modern Interfaces.
Lately I’ve been exploring how motion can make interfaces feel more “alive” without becoming distracting.
So I built this Neon Flow component — a minimal animated UI element with smooth transitions and soft neon aesthetics.
What I enjoyed most while building it:
- balancing glow without overdoing it
- keeping performance smooth
- making the animation feel natural instead of flashy
I genuinely think modern UI is shifting toward subtle interaction design rather than heavy animation.
Where do you think components like this fit best — SaaS products, portfolios, or creative websites?
This animation looks futuristic 🔥 though it's a kinda laggy still. I think it fits into creative websites best. Where'd you design it?
I'm building something I deeply needed myself
And I guess it's time to make it official:
meet aftrglo.app ✨
It started from my own design frustration, curiosity, and a crazy amount of tiny motion experiments. Then I asked other designers about it and turned out this wasn't only my weird little need. This thing actually makes sense
So now it's slowly becoming an actual product
I don't know how to do a perfect launch
I'm not ready
I'm afraid af
But I'm building it anyway
And I'll be sharing the process here 🙌
Interesting. Would love to use try it!🙌
