Same identity, better feel.
My portfolio used to live on Figma Sites. It was quick to publish, but heavy, mostly static and hard to push any further. So I rebuilt it, keeping every part of the original identity (the type, the colors, the logos and every asset) and adding what Figma Sites couldn't: motion, real interactions, and pages that load in a fraction of the time. The homepage went from 1.27 MB to 0.23 MB!
It went from a janky Figma Site to a hi-fi, whimsical showcase of my work, directed from brief to launch with Claude Code in under 2 days.
Here's the short before & after case study, side-by-side recordings and all: omaralfageeh.netlify.app/misc/portfolio-revamp

Figma Sites is great for speed until you hit performance and flexibility walls — rebuilding with intent usually pays off.
