Challenge
Most small driving schools rely on outdated, static websites that do little to reflect their professionalism or engage prospective students. These sites often lack intuitive layouts, are unoptimized for mobile, and make it difficult for users to take meaningful action—like reaching out or learning about services.
For Constantine Driving School, the goal was to create a clean, modern, and responsive single-page web application (SPA) that clearly communicates their offerings and encourages user engagement, particularly through a streamlined contact form.
Solution
I built a responsive SPA using Next.js with a strong focus on UI/UX principles, modern design aesthetics, and smooth scrolling animations. The experience is tailored for both mobile and desktop users, with clean visual hierarchy, intuitive sectioning, and a contact form that works seamlessly via Resend—delivering user messages directly to the school's personalized domain inbox.
Key Features
- One-page Layout: All key information—from services to testimonials—is accessible with smooth in-page navigation and zero page reloads.
- Responsive UI: Fully optimized for mobile, tablet, and desktop devices with consistent design and spacing throughout.
- Scroll Animations: Subtle fade-ins and motion effects enhance engagement without overwhelming the user.
- Contact Form with Resend: When users fill in the contact form, their message—including name, email, and custom message—is emailed directly to the school's admin inbox via Resend, ensuring reliable delivery using the official domain.
- Modern Aesthetic: Professional, minimal layout that balances white space, legible typography, and clean iconography.
Technology Stack
- Next.js: Enables fast, SEO-friendly page loads and server-side rendering where needed.
- React: Manages state and interactivity within the single-page structure.
- Tailwind CSS: Provides utility-first styling with ease, enabling rapid design iteration and mobile responsiveness.
- Framer Motion: Powers scroll-triggered animations and section transitions for a more engaging UI.
- Resend: Handles form submission by sending emails to the business inbox using a domain-authenticated email, ensuring high deliverability and no manual setup with third-party email services.
- TypeScript: Enhances code reliability and readability across the project.
Further Work
Future improvements include:
- Analytics Integration: Track form submissions, user behavior, and conversion data for performance insights.
- Appointment Booking: Expand the form or integrate a calendar-based scheduling tool for automatic lesson bookings.
- Multilingual Support: Offer content in multiple languages to accommodate a more diverse audience.
The Constantine Driving School SPA demonstrates how thoughtful design, smooth interactions, and backend integrations like Resend can create a truly professional and reliable web experience—even for small businesses. It's fast, functional, and built to convert visitors into customers.
