Behind the Scenes: How I Built My Portfolio Website

Building a portfolio website is more than just showcasing your work. In this article, I will take you through my journey of building this portfolio website from concept to deployment.

The Vision

When I started this project, I had a clear vision in mind for a modern and clean design with performance first approach.

Technology Stack

After researching various options, I chose a modern stack that balances performance, developer experience, and scalability.

Frontend Framework

Next.js 14 with App Router was the obvious choice for me.

Styling

Tailwind CSS became my go-to for styling.

Design Process

I spent hours browsing portfolios and taking notes on what works and what doesn't.

Development Journey

The actual development took about 5 weeks, working on it during evenings and weekends.

Results

After deployment, the site consistently scores high on Lighthouse performance tests.
