Workshop Details
What makes a marketing site award-winning? In this full-day workshop, Matias Gonzalez shares the creative and technical playbook behind some of the internet's most talked-about websites. From Vercel's Next.js Conf to MrBeast's promo sites and the Cursor editor homepage, Matias walks through the design and development patterns that power high-impact landing pages. You'll explore the philosophy behind choosing React over vanilla JS, then dig into motion timelines with video, animation, and shaders.
