Men's Mental Health Awareness Landing Page

This is a submission for Frontend Challenge - June Celebrations, Perfect Landing: June Celebrations

What I Built

I created a comprehensive landing page for Men's Mental Health Awareness Month (June) to address the critical issue of mental health among men. This project aims to:

  • Break the stigma around men discussing mental health
  • Provide valuable resources and support information
  • Showcase June events dedicated to men's mental wellness
  • Share powerful statistics and personal stories
  • Create a welcoming, supportive digital environment

The landing page features a modern design with thoughtful animations and interactive elements to engage visitors while maintaining the serious tone appropriate for the subject matter.

Men's mental health

Journey

My Process

  1. Research: Studied men's mental health statistics and common barriers to seeking help
  2. Planning: Created a content strategy focusing on education, resources, and community
  3. Design: Developed a calming color scheme (blues with warm accents) and intuitive layout
  4. Development: Implemented with Tailwind CSS for rapid prototyping and responsiveness
  5. Animation: Added subtle animations to guide users through content
  6. Testing: Ensured accessibility and cross-browser compatibility

What I Learned

  • The power of thoughtful animations to enhance rather than distract
  • How to balance serious content with an inviting design
  • Advanced Tailwind techniques like custom animations and gradients
  • The importance of clear CTAs for crisis resources
  • How to structure complex information in digestible sections

What I'm Proud Of

  • Creating a stigma-free environment through design and language
  • The interactive FAQ section that provides immediate value
  • The statistics visualization that makes data impactful
  • Mobile navigation that maintains full functionality
  • The wave divider between sections for visual interest

Next Steps

  • Add a mental health self-assessment tool
  • Implement a therapist directory with filtering
  • Create a community forum feature
  • Add multilingual support
  • Develop an email newsletter subscription

This project has been deeply meaningful to work on, and I hope it makes a difference in encouraging men to prioritize their mental wellbeing.

I love this đź’–. Using frameworks to build something professional like this; I wonder how the journey was. Could you have gotten a similar or better result with vibe coding, let me know. I am actively drafting a tech stack plan and seek to gather different opinions and you've just made the list.

Thank you. Working with Tailwind on this project was honestly smooth and super rewarding. The utility-first setup made it so easy to build fast and keep everything looking consistent, way faster than if I had used plain CSS. Although CSS gives more control, but Tailwind’s responsive classes and design rules actually made the whole thing cleaner. For pages with lots going on like animations and tricky layouts, I’d pick Tailwind every time. But if it’s a small or simple project, plain CSS might be better. Happy to talk more about your stack if you’re still figuring things out!

If your project had several pages. How would you go round this, given that React is for single page apps. Are there alternatives to this? And would Tailwind still be involved. Let me know if there other alternatives that best fit.

__Teaser:
If you were building a modern and well designed (e.g futuristic) one page or brochure website would you use HTML and CSS, React + Tailwind (or any similar other alternative because of the one page site development of react) or simply AI; either it’s using apps
like Bolt , V0 , Lovable or Prompting LLM’s to generate code (Vibe coding )

Uhmm, If I were building a modern, well-designed one-page or brochure website, I’d base my tools on complexity and future needs. Pure HTML/CSS is great for dead-simple static sites, but maintaining them manually gets very exhausting. React by itself is SPA-focused, but with tools like React Router or even better frameworks like Next.js, you can easily support multi-page navigation and better performance. For futuristic sites, Next.js + Tailwind gives the best of both worlds: flexibility, speed, and great dev experience. Astro is another killer option its extremely fast, great for content-heavy sites, and works beautifully with Tailwind too. AI tools like V0, Bolt, or “vibe coding” approaches are cool for mockups, but not something I’d launch without making sure it’s solid. So yes, Tailwind still plays a major role across all modern stacks especially for visual consistency and responsiveness. My go-to stack for brochure or one-pagers? Astro or Next.js with Tailwind. AI is useful for getting started, but I prefer to take control to ensure the final result meets quality standards.

Been cool seeing steady progress on things like this - stuff for guys' health usually gets brushed off, so you’re a freaking legend for actually building it out.

Really appreciate that, seriously. You’re right, men’s mental health gets overlooked way too often because of all the toxic “man up” stuff. What pushed me to build this was seeing how many tragedies could’ve been avoided if people just felt safe to speak up. The fact that 75% of suicides are men is heartbreaking, and the pressure to always “tough it out” is doing real damage. If a platform like this will help even one person feel seen or reach out for help, then it’s all been worth it. Thanks for seeing the value in it.
