I launched a components playground

Oct 8, 2024

I'm excited to announce that I've launched a new project: a components playground! This project is a showcase of the components I've built and a place where I can experiment with new ideas using GSAP, Framer Motion & ThreeJS. I hope it will be a useful source of inspiration for those looking to get their hands busy with interactions too.

You can check it out here.

Why I Built This Playground

As a developer, I often find myself creating various components for different projects. However, these components often remain isolated within their respective projects, making it difficult to showcase my work or reuse them in future projects. By creating this playground, I aim to centralize my work and provide a platform where I can easily share my components with others.

Technologies Used

This playground is built using some of the latest and greatest technologies in web development:

  • NextJS: For server-side rendering and static site generation.
  • TailwindCSS: For rapid UI development with utility-first CSS.
  • Framer Motion: For smooth and complex animations.
  • GSAP: For advanced animations and interactions.
  • ThreeJS: For 3D graphics and animations.

Features

The components playground comes with several exciting features:

  • Interactive Demos: Each component comes with an interactive demo, allowing you to see it in action.
  • Code Snippets: Easily copy and paste code snippets to use the components in your own projects.
  • Documentation: Detailed documentation for each component, explaining how to use and customize it.
  • Responsive Design: All components are designed to be fully responsive, ensuring they look great on any device.

Future Plans

This is just the beginning! I have many plans for the future of this playground, including:

  • Adding more components and examples.
  • Creating tutorials and guides to help others learn how to build similar components.
  • Adding a rating and feedback system to gather user input and improve the components.

I hope you find this playground as exciting and useful as I do. Feel free to explore and let me know what you think!

Happy coding! 🚀
