Overview

A performance-focused personal portfolio built with Astro and TailwindCSS, designed to present my work clearly and professionally. I built and deployed the site end-to-end with an emphasis on clean structure, fast load times, and easy iteration.

What I built

  • A responsive layout with clear information hierarchy and consistent visual structure
  • A projects system powered by Astro Content Collections (index + per-project deep dives)
  • Continuous deployment via Vercel for fast iteration and reliable hosting

Design notes

  • Performance-first: chose Astro to minimize client-side JavaScript and keep pages lightweight.
  • Content-driven architecture: structured the site so new projects are added via markdown, not UI rewrites.
  • Maintainability over flash: prioritized clarity, accessibility, and long-term ease of updates.
