📋 The Walkthrough

  1. Master the core skill for 'web design (wordpress/wix/webflow)' — build side projects to deepen expertise.
  2. Create 3-5 portfolio projects on GitHub that demonstrate real capability and clean code.
  3. Set up profiles on Upwork, direct with case studies, not just skill lists — show what you built and the impact.
  4. Specialize hard — 'React developer for fintech dashboards' beats 'full-stack developer.'
  5. Set premium rates from day one — tech commands $50-150/hr. Low rates signal low quality.
  6. Pitch clients with specific solutions to their problems. Read their app, find a bug, mention it.
  7. Deliver on time and systematically ask for referrals — each happy client should bring 1-2 more.

🤖 Arcane Guidance (⚡ Fully Automatable)

  1. Load the `claude-design` skill — this gives Hermes access to 54+ production design systems.
  2. Share 2-3 reference images with Hermes using `vision_analyze` — 'Analyze this design style and replicate it.'
  3. Tell Hermes: 'Design a web design (wordpress/wix/webflow) with [style] aesthetic, [color palette], for [target audience].'
  4. Use `aesthetic-reverse-engineering` if you have a specific reference — Hermes will extract the design DNA.
  5. Iterate 3-5 rounds rapidly — each round takes seconds, not hours. 'Make the font bolder, shift to warmer tones.'
  6. Generate additional assets with `image_generate` for backgrounds, textures, or supporting graphics.
  7. Export the final design and deliver. Use Hermes to draft the delivery email with design rationale.
