I made a portfolio, Please clap 🙃

Yes. I finally did the thing.

After days of battling Tailwind, fighting my inner perfectionist, and Googling "how to center a div" for the 87th time — I built my second personal portfolio.

Live here 👈


Why tho?

Honestly?

  • I wanted to look serious online.
  • I was tired of my GitHub being the only "proof of existence".
  • I Already have one portfolio but not to good, You can see my Old Portfolio.
  • And let’s be real… I just wanted something to drop in job applications that wasn’t a Notion page 😬.

What’s inside?

This portfolio isn’t just HTML and vibes. Here's the tech stack I used (because devs love lists):

🧱 Frameworks & Core

  • Next.js 15
  • React 19
  • Tailwind CSS (with tailwind-merge)
  • Framer Motion & motion for smooth animation
  • Dark mode support via next-themes

🧠 Forms & Validation

  • react-hook-form + @hookform/resolvers
  • Schema validation with zod

🧩 Radix UI Components

I may have used almost every component Radix ever made:

  • Accordion, Dialog, DropdownMenu, Tabs, Tooltip, Checkbox, Select, Label, Avatar, Collapsible, Separator, Slot, AspectRatio

🛠️ Utils & Libraries

  • cmdk for command menu
  • clsx & class-variance-authority for conditional classes
  • lucide-react for icons
  • react-markdown for content rendering

✉️ Extras

  • nodemailer (for future email stuff)
  • @vercel/analytics to spy on myself

Star it in Github ⭐


I need you (for feedback, not money… yet)

This thing is still a baby.

So if you visit and think:

“huh, that section is weird”

or

“why would anyone use that font?”

  • The design is truly inspired by Tailwindcss.com and Shadcnui

Please tell me. Rip it apart if needed. I want to improve it.


Use it for your own portfolio 🔥

It’s open source, MIT licensed. Fork it. Clone it. Remix it.

Just don’t forget to leave a star ⭐ (I need the dopamine).

Source Code 🔥


Follow me maybe?

If you like what I build (or just enjoy watching devs overshare online),

consider following me on GitHub!

Looks good! If you don't mind me saying, I would personally like to see a little bit more padding on the headers:

Just feels a bit visually tight.

I liked that it's not too fancy and not too simple, perfect balance. Also the "I AM DEV" that's so cool. After seeing your portfolio and the fact that you said "This thing is still a baby." I am humbled 🙂
