Gradly is a student career social network — a platform designed to connect students with opportunities, mentors, and peers. The marketing landing site was built to introduce the platform and generate early interest with a bold, modern aesthetic.
The site features a pure black design with high-contrast typography and subtle animated elements that give it a premium, tech-forward feel. The client came in with an existing Figma design, which we used as the foundation — building faithfully from their vision rather than starting from scratch.
Unlike projects where we lead the design phase, Gradly was developed directly from the client's existing Figma design. This made the project a pure execution challenge — translating a detailed visual spec into a production-ready Next.js site with smooth animations and responsive layouts.
The animated components were carefully selected from open-source libraries and integrated to complement the design without overwhelming it.
Delivered as a design concept and prototype — a fully built, animated landing site the client can use to validate the concept and present to stakeholders before moving into full platform development.
