What clients can prepare to help speed up a website project?
Sometimes a business needs a new website sooner than a typical project timeline allows.
While every project still requires strategy, design, and development, there are a few things clients can prepare that often help move the process forward faster:
• content drafts or key messaging
• photos, brand assets, and visual materials
• examples of websites they like (and don't like)
• information about their target audience
• service descriptions and offers
• testimonials, reviews, or case studies
• business goals and conversion priorities
The more information available at the start, the less time is spent waiting for decisions, gathering materials, and revising content later.
The smoother the preparation, the smoother the project!
That's nice!

PixelWave is a browser-based audio visualizer that turns
any MP3 or WAV into real-time pixel animations. It includes
4 visualization modes, 4 color themes, a curated tape
library, and a beat-sync game where the audio waveform
becomes playable terrain. Built with vanilla HTML/CSS/JS
and the Web Audio API. No server, no uploads — everything
runs locally in the browser.
How I Used Stitch
I brought my concept into Stitch using
"Start from existing design." Stitch streamed the
generation of all screens directly to the canvas
as separate editable frames. I used in-place AI edits
to refine screens where the canvas reset mid-generation.
Those screens defined the visual direction and component
structure of the full build, deployed to Netlify.
The "Start from existing design" feature was the most
useful part — importing my HTML file and getting 5
separate editable frames immediately saved a lot of time.
The main friction I encountered was with undo/redo:
when I tried to undo a change on one frame, it reverted
all frames back to an earlier state, not just the
specific edit. This made iterating carefully on
individual screens less predictable.
Overall Stitch significantly sped up going from
concept to structured screens.

The beat sync game idea is pretty creative. Not many entries are exploring audio as the core experience. Also agree on the undo issue, ran into a few similar moments while iterating.
Here's what I built for the challenge:
