Halo is an immersive digital experience conceived as a showcase for a premium, fictional headphone brand. The project's genesis was to approach a side project with real-world client planning and meticulous UX design, where every detail—from the brand identity and typography to the scrolling narrative—was carefully structured before a single line of code was written.
This application integrates several modern web frameworks into one cohesive, high-performance product. The core technical idea was to blend the structural reliability of Next.js with the visual power of Three.js (for complex 3D rendering) and the buttery-smooth animation control of GSAP. The goal was to prove that ambitious, next-generation immersive designs are viable while maintaining a high frame rate and excellent performance metrics.
- Next.js – React framework for server-side rendering, routing, and optimized performance
- Tailwind CSS – Utility-first CSS framework for styling and responsive design
- GSAP – High-performance animation library for complex and interactive animations as well as smooth scrolling.
- Three.js – JavaScript 3D library for creating immersive and interactive 3D visuals
- React Scroll – Scroll-based navigation and smooth anchor linking
- Vercel – Hosting and deployment platform for seamless CI/CD
