The 80th Love Letter by

One Page Love

Last week I had the privilege of judging the Webflow x Contra Community Challenge.

The talent was massive.

It got so intense near the end as the top three were neck and neck.

By 2am Cape Town time I was still in Slack with the other four judges trading notes on performance, mobile, typography and more.

Here are the top three builds that rose above the rest:

🏆 1st Place – $25k: Thomas CarrĂ©, Guillaume Colombel, and ClĂ©ment Merouani for a sensational Ousmane DembĂ©lĂ© tribute (the mobile adaption is superb!).

đŸ„ˆ 2nd Place – $15k: Oliver Gareis and Jonas Arleth for Michael Bay Studios.

đŸ„‰ 3rd Place – $10k: Victor Costa for Sleep Well Creatives.

Rob Hope Cheers,
Rob

Holo Shader, now in Framer!

Introducing a brand new addition to our Shader library: Holo. A gradient shader that simulates how light splits into rainbows on holographic surfaces. Instead of colors, you control the math that shapes the colors, and the way the shader warps and flows. Holo is now available in the Insert Panel, under Shaders.
