From prompt to page.

Money should move like you do. An independent static interpretation of the archived GetLayers brief.

01 / Read the brief

The text source is 05-STRIDE-FINTECH-MOMENTUM.md. Reference media could not be inspected in this environment. This is not a pixel-identical reconstruction.

02 / Establish a visual system

Background #050a1b, foreground #f8fafc, accent #86b7ff, surface #101b32. Local fonts, a responsive 1320 px maximum grid, and a site-specific hero composition establish the hierarchy.

03 / Build the signature mechanism

A bevelled Three.js payment card with locally rendered face texture floats over a helical blue filament. Pointer springs adjust pitch and yaw; the virtual-card control updates a masked non-payment identifier in the DOM.

04 / Make it interactive

05 / Record the adaptations

No banking integration, account creation, KYC, investment advice, or real FX rates. A hero-local light ribbon replaces the continuous full-page filament. Card generation creates only a clearly marked demo suffix.

Shared architecture: local Three.js, native scrolling, a single frame scheduler, capped pixel density, offscreen/hidden-tab suspension, reduced-motion support, CSS fallback, and no backend.

06 / Validate honestly

See the actual validation record for test results. Automated checks do not replace manual screen-reader testing or reference-image comparison. All readouts and submissions are illustrative and local.

07 / Reproduce the build

python3 -m http.server 8080 --bind 0.0.0.0
# Open /getlayersai/sites/stride/

cd getlayersai
python3 tools/build.py
python3 tools/verify.py
npm ci
npm test

Edit this site's record in tools/catalog.py before rebuilding. Shared rendering and interactions are in shared/scenes.js and shared/interactions.js. Generated HTML and documentation will be overwritten on regeneration.
