Project Overview

This project is a front-end focused Netflix clone that precisely replicates the original platform’s user interface and browsing experience. The clone mirrors Netflix’s homepage layout, including the hero banner section, horizontal content carousels, category rows, and interactive navigation bar. Special attention was given to typography, color schemes, spacing, and dark theme styling to closely match the real platform’s design system. The project recreates smooth hover effects, content preview animations, and scroll-based interactions to deliver an immersive streaming-style experience. It is fully responsive, ensuring seamless performance across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices while maintaining visual consistency. The primary goal of this project was to demonstrate advanced front-end skills by building a pixel-perfect, dynamic, and polished replica of Netflix’s interface.

The Challenge & The Solution

Building the Netflix clone presented specific challenges, particularly with the sliders and movie cards. Recreating Netflix’s horizontal content sliders required implementing smooth side-scrolling behavior with arrow controls while ensuring consistent spacing and alignment across different screen sizes. Managing overflow content without breaking the layout or causing unwanted scrollbars was technically demanding. Ensuring the sliders remained responsive and touch-friendly on mobile devices added further complexity. Designing the movie cards also required careful attention to detail, especially in replicating hover effects where cards scale, display additional information, and overlap adjacent elements without disrupting the row structure. Handling dynamic content such as varying poster sizes and titles while maintaining uniform card dimensions was another challenge. Additionally, ensuring smooth animations and preventing performance issues when multiple sliders and cards were rendered on the same page made this aspect of the project particularly demanding.
