Screensaver 😍 (Suck it, Netflix! Mine's prettier)

The sleek UI you see was designed by @aaoa-dev, a designer with 16 years of experience. Want to see how it's done? AA streams the design process live on YouTube and Twitch. You'll often find me there too, so feel free to drop by and follow the journey. If YouTube is your platform of choice, just give me a shout in the chat! 😊

Want the icons and design kit you see here?

You can grab them here (I might have had a bit too much fun... my bad!)
