I used Google Stitch to design Folia, a local-first document builder desktop app that lets anyone create professional CVs, invoices, and portfolio websites without subscriptions or internet access.
Stitch helped me rapidly prototype the full UI flow: the document type picker home screen, multi-step form builder with live preview panel, template picker with visual thumbnails, and the build success screen.
What makes this design special:
Split-panel layout: form on left, live preview on right Clean minimal aesthetic that feels premium not generic
Three distinct template styles per document type
Dark mode throughout
Progress step navigation
The exported HTML/CSS from Stitch became the foundation
I refined for a Tauri v2 desktop app built with Rust + Svelte. Privacy-first.
No cloud. One-time payment.
Your documents stay on your computer forever.
Everything flows together so naturally here, it’s beautiful.
Thank you Denis! that means a lot coming from someone with your eye for design. I'm building this for freelancers who are tired of subscriptions eating into their margins. If you ever want to try it on a real project I'd love to hear what a pro thinks of it in actual use🙏
I took a look at your profile after your comment 😉 Framer developer building conversion-focused sites. I think you might find what I'm building next interesting.
It's called Animus, an offline 2D character animation studio. You draw, rig, animate, and export a self-contained...
Really like this, the local-first direction + document builder flow feels very practical and well thought out. The split preview layout works nicely.

Top-notch design.
Atmospheric, and it was the photography that decided it. A lamp is a product you buy for what it does to a room, so seeing the warm glow pooling across a dark surface sells the feeling before the layout even registers. Sculptural is gorgeous but shows the object, Atmospheric shows the outcome.
A modern, visually focused website designed around clean layouts, bold typography, immersive visuals, and smooth interactions. The design combines a strong visual identity with an intuitive user experience, creating a polished and premium digital presence.
I focused on UI/UX design, responsive layouts, visual hierarchy, animations, transitions, and interactive elements to make the website feel dynamic rather than static. The experience was designed with attention to spacing, typography, composition, and consistent interaction patterns across different sections.
The project showcases my approach to creating modern, creative, and conversion-focused websites that balance aesthetics with usability and responsive frontend implementation.
