Form follows Function
The title of this project reference is a dance hit from the 90s Groove is in the Heart by Deee-lite. Because of the 90s reference but also because there are a few heart paths in the samples.
Listen to this playlist to get into the groove. This project has various sample screens that demonstrate the individual techniques used to emulate a 90s website. On the top bar you can navigate home from the examples, change the font and switch into the final version of the homes screen which incorporates all the examples.
