Website Template Development
My friend Adnan, who is the founder of Supa Stellar, reached out in the community looking for Framer developers who could develop the KOTO Template for this company, after talking about the project and showcasing my work we decided to collaborate on this project. I have created a detailed case study of this project below for reference. It's currently live and you can purchase this template directly from Supa Stellar by clicking here.

📝The Process
Initial Discussion with the Client:
The project commenced with a thorough discussion with the client to understand their specific requirements, including desired functionalities, animations, interactions, as well as the various pages and sections essential for the website.
Creating Components:
Following the initial discussion, my focus shifted to creating the fundamental components of the website, such as the testimonial carousel, feature card animation, navigation bar, footer, buttons, etc. This step laid the groundwork for the subsequent development phases.
Pages and Sections Development:
Once all the components were in place, the development process transitioned to building the individual pages and their respective sections. My key emphasis during this phase was on simultaneous development across different breakpoints to ensure seamless responsiveness and optimal user experience across various devices.
Adding Magic to the Website:
After the static pages and sections were constructed and the components integrated, the next step involved adding the agreed-upon interactions and animations to enhance the website's visual appeal and user engagement.
Client Feedback and Final Review:
Upon completion of the development phase, I presented the website to the client for review. Feedback was incorporated, and once all pages, interactions and animations were approved, the website was published for a final review before going live.
Project Hand-Off:
Following the client's approval, I prepared a comprehensive hand-off guide. This guide included all the necessary deliverables (mentioned at the end of this case study), such as the Framer Project (source) File, the published link, and a detailed video guide explaining the website's maintenance and other essential information for the client.
