Word Fit Women’s Weekly is Kindal and I’s online fitness business.
Our marketing site has been in production for about two years. It’s going through some transformations to say the least.
Currently it’s built with NextJs .
It’s also in dire need or an update.
-
We are dialing in our offerings.
-
We are dialing in the offers to get customers.
-
And I need to tweak the design slightly as well.
This is a good chance to port it to Astro or Qwik .
I’ve really enjoyed building Nerds in Astro (for the most part). It’s a great solution for so many use cases online.
Plus porting it won’t be that big of a challenge. The hardest part for me is using CSS modules in my SolidJS components.
That extra CSS file as opposed to having the CSS directly in the component file… it’s a headache to deal with.
Yes, you read that correctly. I will switch the React components that need interaction to SolidJS. I really enjoy Solid compared to React. That sounds like an opinion blog post.
Deadline: November 1, 2022
By November 1, 2022 I want…
-
An organized Figma file with every detail of my update mapped out.
-
A catalog of the new components I need.
-
A process to update and change existing components over to better versions.
-
And I want to know which components I want to add to my personal component library.
The biggest mistake I’ve made over the last few years of building websites and the few apps I have built…
Not FULLY designing them in Figma first .
And I mean every possible view and state the UI could have… including error states.
I am making a promise to myself here… I will design EVERYTHING first before I start building in code.
I made this mistake back with Nerds. I got excited and started coding before everything was designed. It slows the process down so much.
