I keep coming back to Astro.js, especially for sites with a lot of animation.

It’s still wild to me that you can get all those moving parts and somehow keep everything green on PageSpeed.

Most of the fun now is in Motion and the custom JS bits. I keep thinking I should clean up those scripts, but the results speak for themselves.

Hey everyone 👋 Are there any Motion Designers here?

Looking to collaborate on a small task. If you're available or interested, feel free to drop a message or share your portfolio!

Thanks 🙌

First thing I do on any Webflow project: set up color and typography variables.

Sounds basic, but it makes everything else faster. I define every color and font style once. Then when I'm building pages, I'm not guessing hex codes or recreating text styles every time. It's already there.

Also means when the client wants to tweak their brand colors later, I just change one variable and the whole site updates. No hunting through elements or hoping I caught everything.

The foundation work isn't exciting. But it's what keeps builds clean and makes them easier to manage down the line.
