About the project
Perfected App is a web agency website used to market app development services. The website was initially built on the WordPress platform but was later moved to React and Gatsby. It uses advanced page transitions and animations.

Moving off WordPress
The hardest part was the live page transitions and UI animations.
The site started as a WordPress theme built with jQuery and vanilla JavaScript. Moving it to React and the Gatsby static site generator made it load over 3 times faster and added PWA (Progressive Web App) support. It also cut maintenance costs: a static site is more secure and much cheaper to host than WordPress.
