When a section relies on animation, I now prototype it in Figma motion instead of writing it out. A simple prototype gives the client and the developer the same clear reference: less back and forth, more precise feedback and a smoother build. Here’s the hero animation for a recent landing page, shown as a working prototype.
Beautiful
thank you!
thanks Aly!
100%! Showing a motion prototype saves so many rounds of back-and-forth explaining visual timing. Nothing beats giving the dev exact motion references straight from the design phase
Exactly, and it helps both ways. The client approves the feeling, the developer gets the timing, and nobody has to translate between the two. Thanks Aysha!
Prototyping the hero animation instead of describing it saves so much back and forth. As a Webflow developer I'd take a motion reference like this over a paragraph of notes any day.
Great to hear that from the developer side. That’s exactly why I started doing it: a short motion reference removes most of the guesswork before the build starts.
Creative work
thank you!

I migrated Pi-lit's site from WordPress to a custom-coded, AI-native website with its own hosting. The result:
-A scalable design system that also supports their ecommerce
-30+ pages with consistent branding throughout
-Animated illustrations of their scenes and products that bring the roadway safety story to life

Lovely work
We’re testing two filtering layouts for a template library.
Top Filters
The filters are placed above the content. This option feels lighter, leaves more space for the cards, and works well when there are only a few main categories.
Sidebar Filters
The categories remain visible in the sidebar. This makes the available options easier to scan and works better for more complex filtering, but takes up some of the content space.
Which layout would help you find the right template faster?

Such a clean presentation. You can tell a lot of thought went into this.
🚀 The Keel website is now live!
I designed Keel as a fintech website concept focused on presenting financial products through a clean layout, clear messaging, and a simple user experience.
I’ve also built the website in Framer. Check it out below!

Always happy to hear your feedback!
Congrats on the launch Nilkanth! Keel looks super clean — love how you kept the fintech messaging simple and focused. The "Take Control of Your Financial Future" hero with the app preview balances trust and clarity perfectly. Great job building it in Framer too!
