As part of my full stack learning journey, I picked a real, professionally designed website and tried to rebuild it myself. I chose the Clay homepage.
The goal was simple: understand how a real product site structures its sections, spaces its content and keeps a consistent visual style, using nothing but raw HTML and CSS.
What I rebuilt
- The navigation bar
- The hero section
- The partner logos strip
- Several feature sections and content blocks
- The full footer
No frameworks, no JavaScript. Just the fundamentals, so every layout decision had to come from me.
Source code
The full project is on GitHub: Clay homepage clone.
What's not finished yet
It isn't fully responsive yet, and there are layout issues on smaller screens. That was on purpose. I wanted the full structure in place first, and I'll come back to add proper responsive rules once I'm more confident with flexbox, grid and mobile-first design.
What I learned
Rebuilding something real teaches you far more than following a tutorial. You have to figure out how everything fits together yourself. I was surprised by how much thought goes into spacing, alignment and typography. Even a "simple" section needs a lot of small, careful decisions to look clean.
This project is just one step, but it shows the direction I'm heading: more real-world layouts, better CSS, and slowly moving toward full stack development.
