I am a developer, not a designer, and I suck at design. I am trying to start getting some jobs on the side of my job, so this will be my presentation for getting customers to build them websites. I am open to any and all feedback. So far I've only done part of the home page, but I thought I would ask for feedback before continuing, thanks!

Happy for ya! But yeah the design definitely needs work. Keep a consistent margin.
learn about spacing basics.
that'll definitely level up your design.
not feeling the type combos either
harsh shadows. no padding. both are a no go
content shouldnt be touching boundaries like it does here
the white border is too intense here. and the paddings within the cards need work too.
id suggest learning basic design principles if you really wanna up your design game.
colors, type, spacing for starters
Hey, thanks for your time. I really appreciate it. I read about spacing, found the 4 point grid system and implemented that, so it should be better now. Also removed the Shadows and colors from the menu on hover. I don't know what you mean with the type combos, what exactly is that? I searched web design types but other things came up. If you can, lt me know if it's better now, this helps me a lot to learn, thanks!
yea the 4pt grid definitely improved alignments. spacings still need some work.
id start by increasing the margins to like 72
dont use 2 type faces. just use one. keep it simple. something clean. like Geist, or Onest, or Inter if you really wanna play it safe.
increase the paddings here too. so the contents not too tight.
the icons arent consistent either. find a good iconset. consistency is key
or just use figma AI to design a page 
The animation with the elements spinning into place gives off 2007 PowerPoint vibes. I’d def recommend something closer to a slide up from 0 opacity
@granite wave Avoid #000000 color especially for backgrounds. Sometimes is good to use a little gray-white for text aswell (depends on the contrast with the background)
Okay I think I fixed the spacing, changed to just one font, used all icons from same library and increased the padding in the cards. What do you think now?
Changed for zoom in, thanks for the comment
@true crest thanks for your comment, I have updated the background to #070707
Definitely looks better, are you by any chance using GSAP scrolltriger for it?
No, I am using Tailwind. Is there anything else you would suggest changing on what there is right now? I appreciate your feedback
this free course is good https://v2.scrimba.com/intro-to-ui-design-fundamentals-c0q
so is refactoring UI
I don't think the animation fits well with the site design. I think it's hard to find an illustration style that fits with any given web design style, but this one looks especially off
Thanks, I'll check out that course. So you think remove all animations?
