Hi, I’m Rolans! I’m a designer based in the Netherlands with a background in visual identity and logo design. After pivoting to UI/UX and web design, I started crafting tools and now, plugins, for Framer. Let me introduce you to my latest creation: Sol.

What Does Sol Do?

Sol is all about adding dynamic, visually engaging elements to your website—think animated gradients, hover-responsive visuals, and unique shapes. If you’re tired of the typical rounded squares and want to add some flair to your personal site or client projects, Sol is for you. It’s also perfect for in-house teams looking to bring some fresh energy to their branding.

The Inspiration Behind Sol

I’ve always enjoyed working with procedural textures and gradients in Blender. I thought, why not take that concept and make it run in real-time on a website? That’s how Sol came to life!

Why I Built It

I couldn’t find anything quite like Sol—other tools were either too slow, too heavy, or didn’t offer the customization I wanted. So, I jumped into development to create something fast, performant, and easy to use.

The Biggest Challenge

Finding the balance between features and simplicity. Scope creep is real! If you try to pack in too much, you’ll never finish or end up with a confusing user experience. Keeping things streamlined was key for me.

I’m excited to see how people use Sol to elevate their designs!
