What's up with the design? It's really nice, but also very similar to Gumroad's visual language. Not really criticism, just curious about the idea behind it.

- fullstackchris 3y agoDefinitely noticed that too. Seems like a cheeky tip of the hat towards Gumroad.
- rogerclark 3y agoGumroad's design is itself a reuse of several design trends from 2021-2023. Wondermind is one example of another site using the same aesthetic. https://www.wondermind.com/ https://www.wondermind.com/
- andrelaszlo 3y agoHmm, I get your point but I think it's much closer than Wondermind. - Layout that uses the full width of the page. - The page is primarily made up of blocks that occupy a single column or two columns. - Large blocks of a primary color - The font used for the logos are quite similar. Not sure what it's called, but they're both some sort of chunky and playful sans with some oversized and/or geometric elements. - Decorative coins featured prominently (G) ($) - Cartoony graphics with a hand-drawn feeling to them. - Graphics poke out of the grid in many places. - Similar navbars Each point by itself is hardly surprising, most landing pages have some of them, but taken together it seemed like a lot to me :) Either way, great work and I'd love to try it on my next project <3
