CreaDev Design Portfolio
Modern portfolio website built with Next.js and Tailwind CSS, featuring a custom 3D logo animation, scroll-triggered reveals, and a case study system for showcasing client work.
Case Study
💡The Challenge
We needed a portfolio that did more than list projects — it had to demonstrate the same level of craft we bring to client work. The site needed to balance visual polish with performance, showcase technical depth through detailed case studies, and convert visitors into leads. Most developer portfolios either look generic or sacrifice speed for flash. This one couldn't.
Key Challenges
- Creating a 3D logo animation with pure CSS that runs at 60fps across all devices
- Implementing Tailwind CSS 4 with Next.js 16 before stable releases
- Designing a dark theme with WCAG-compliant contrast ratios
- Building a scalable data structure for detailed case studies
- Integrating Framer Motion animations without hurting Core Web Vitals
🎨The Solution
A custom Next.js 16 build with TypeScript, Tailwind CSS 4, and Framer Motion. The homepage features a 3D logo animation using pure CSS transforms and clip-path masking — no libraries, no performance hit. Scroll-triggered animations throughout keep the experience engaging without bloating the bundle. Each project has a dedicated case study page with problem-solution-results breakdowns, tech stack details, and deliverables. Dark theme with a subtle grid background, fully responsive, and optimized for Core Web Vitals.
Technologies & Approach
🚀The Result
The site serves as both a portfolio and a proof of concept — every animation, every interaction demonstrates the same attention to detail clients can expect. Lighthouse scores: 96 Performance, 92 Accessibility, 100 Best Practices, 100 SEO. The case study format has streamlined client conversations by answering technical questions upfront. The contact form converts, and the site ranks for local web development searches.
