When you're a front-end developer, finding inspiration for your next project can sometimes feel like a challenge. But the truth is, inspiration is all around—you just need to know where to look. These are my go to places for when I need inspiration :

Not just a design tool, Figma’s community resources offer countless templates, UI kits, and prototypes shared by talented designers. It's a great place to find inspiration and see how others approach their designs.Pinterest
Don’t underestimate Pinterest! Trust me I was shocked at the results I got. It’s not just for styling and recipes—there’s a ton of web and app design inspiration here too. Create a board, pin what you like, and watch your ideas come together.GitHub
Sometimes inspiration comes from seeing how others solve problems. GitHub lets you dive deep into how projects are built. You can even remix or build upon existing work.Real-World Projects
Sometimes, the best inspiration comes from real-world experiences. Look at apps, websites, and interfaces you use every day—think about what works, what doesn't, and how you could improve them.
As a front-end developer, your creativity is your most powerful tool. Keep exploring, keep experimenting, and don’t be afraid to draw inspiration from a wide variety of sources.
