When our client Out of Dark set a stringent 6-month deadline for their MVP launch, we knew it was time to elevate our design game. We started with branding and UI simultaneously to save weeks of waiting for the brand.Inspired by the company’s name, we conceptualized a ‘light beam’ theme that encapsulates their brand essence. This dynamic branding was woven into the UI later in the process. Leveraging Figma’s Tokens made this integration smoother than ever.Now here’s where it got really interesting ➡️ to expedite development, we adopted an open-source React design library. We didn’t just use it as-is; we customized it extensively to meet our specific requirements, adding unique components for complex screens. The result? A perfect blend of speed and quality ⚡️💻.Projects like these, which push our boundaries are what drive us. Want to know more about our process? Drop your questions below, and let’s dive into the details! 🤔
