No comment on the weird signup form behavior? The first field is labeled "First name" but on focus it switches to "Legal first name"... that's a little funky.
This was a fantastic breakdown as always though, learned a lot!
Really like this, lots of great content and polish.
One thing I noticed, the only way into your case studies is to click the little 'CASE STUDY' badge, that felt a little unintuitive, maybe make the image and title clickable too?
Well pretty much but what were you expecting? This is just another internal framework, I guess kinda like Lightning Design System
The scroll-jacking caught me out because its so delayed I wasn't sure what was going on at first.
The custom letter treatments for each project are neat although it reminded me of what the agency Huge does on their site.

Farmers should know how to build their own tractors.

Tools like FramerJS are fun because they enable designers to show a bit more flair and get a bit scrappy in code if they want to, and its really useful for showing complex interactions. But it's whole world away from all the intricacies of a production environment.
My thoughts exactly Barry, there are some really talented folks out there who can whip up great design and quality code blindfolded, but most of the time it's better to specialise and be really really good at one thing and have top-level knowledge of the wider skillsets.
i prefer Sketch to look a little utilitarian, helps me focus on my own design work, and because I am already used to working with native MacOS interfaces the program doesn't get in the way of my workflow.

Anybody got screenshots of what I'm supposed to be seeing? I've just got the design that seems to have been up for a good while now; similar to the aesthetic they have on dribbble.
