This is the standard process I use to design and create a website. I have developed this over several years of creating websites personally and academically, learning and improving each time.
To design the websites I use Figma, starting with a few wireframes to try different layouts and understand what works best for the content. I then add colour and fonts to the layout and test different options.
Once the design is complete I move to react and create any functionality using javascript.
Finally, I add the design using tailwind and ensure it is responsive, testing on three different screen sizes (phone, laptop and desktop).
