About This Project
This project is a visually stunning and interactive 3D website inspired by Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro showcase. The goal was to replicate Apple’s sleek and modern feel using web technologies like React, Three.js, GSAP, and React Three Fiber, while maintaining excellent performance and mobile responsiveness. The app features scroll-triggered animations, a video-based carousel, and a beautifully animated 3D iPhone model. As users scroll, the content seamlessly transitions between sections using GSAP timelines, while videos fade in and out in sync with scroll position. Users on desktop and mobile enjoy an immersive, smooth experience thanks to responsive layout techniques and performance optimization. This project demonstrates advanced animation techniques, deep integration of 3D graphics, and fine-tuned scroll-based interactions, making it a strong frontend engineering and creative design portfolio piece.
Key Features
- 🎬 Scroll-Based Animations: Smooth transitions triggered by scroll events using GSAP.
- 📱 Fully Responsive Layout: Optimized for mobile and desktop, including separate handling of 3D and video content.
- 🎥 Video Carousel: Custom animated slider with multiple videos fading in and out based on scroll position.
- 📦 3D iPhone Model: Interactive and animated 3D model rendered using React Three Fiber and Three.js.
- 🚀 Performance Optimizations: Lazy loading, efficient animation logic, and fast build times using Vite.
- 🧩 Componentized Codebase: Built using reusable React components and Tailwind CSS utility classes.
Challenges Overcome
- ✨ Syncing GSAP animations with scroll position across different sections and media types.
- 📐 Building a fully responsive layout while preserving high-fidelity design and animation quality.
- 🎯 Rendering a complex 3D object without performance drops on mobile.
- 🔁 Managing scroll snapping, section-based transitions, and scroll-linked animations in a React environment.
What I Learned
This project greatly deepened my skills in GSAP timeline animations, 3D rendering with Three.js, and creating polished, high-performance UI/UX experiences. I also learned how to manage complex animation logic in a React environment and structure my code for readability and reusability.
