Cover image for Hey everyone! I just created

Hey everyone! I just created my first digital product: auraOS. It’s an AI-powered operating system designed for freelance designers who want more clarity, structure, and calm in their daily workflow, from managing clients to generating prompts, tracking time, and creating clean invoices in one focused space. I built it for creatives who already know how to get clients, but want a better way to execute and deliver consistently without burnout.

Cover image for Project Title: Interactive Hana Star

Project Title: Interactive Hana Star (My First 3D Project!) I am excited to share my very first 3D design experience! For this challenge, I experimented with Spline Hana to create an interactive experience. Interactivity: I added a "Mouse Hover" event that triggers a smooth 360-degree rotation. Hana Effects: I applied Bloom and Chromatic Aberration to give the star a futuristic, glowing glass look. First Time Experience: This was my first time using Spline, and I loved learning how to blend 2D and 3D elements!

Cover image for Ever wonder why your thoughtful

Ever wonder why your thoughtful gift didn't land the way you hoped? This Valentine's, discover how you and your partner actually want to receive love - because sometimes the best gesture isn't roses, it's doing the dishes. Pick your love languages, get personalized ideas that'll actually make them feel special, and maybe finally crack the code on why they light up over a handwritten note but shrug at expensive jewelry. It's like a cheat sheet for romance, but way prettier. Link to the app: https://designs.magicpath.ai/v1/sharply-door-7115 @Wispr Flow x @MagicPath combined The post on X: https://x.com/Dan2Designe/status/2021884160793883006

I created this interactive, animated map of Middle-earth for the Spline Hana challenge, showcasing the hobbits’ journey across the iconic locations of the story. A must-see eye-candy for Lord of the Rings fans - but I hope everyone else will enjoy it too. Link for the project: https://app.spline.design/ui/c8f0c38f-cc5a-48a0-b5d3-13fc01e04908
