🚀 Personal Portfolio – Astro + Svelte Edition

A portfolio that doesn’t just show who I am — it feels like me.

This site is a complete rebuild of my older portfolio — designed to reflect not just my work but my mindset, taste, and values as a developer.

I didn’t want a bloated portfolio with 10MB of JS and flashing animations. I wanted something:

Minimal yet expressive
Fast enough to load instantly on poor connections
Fresh and lightweight, in both code and content
That grows as I grow, with content-driven routing, markdown support, and scalable design

Astro – for its zero-JS-by-default philosophy and excellent developer experience
Svelte – used in interactive parts for reactivity without complexity
MDX – all blogs and projects are written in markdown with embedded components
TailwindCSS – to keep the design clean and composable
Custom Components – from graph-like skill networks to tag-based filters, built for flexibility

🧭 Dynamic routing for projects, blogs, and experience pages
🧠 Interactive skill graph to visualize what I know & explore what I’m learning
💻 Performance-first with almost no client-side JS where unnecessary
📱 Fully responsive, accessible, and mobile-optimized
🏷️ Tag-based filtering and search for blogs & projects
📓 MDX-based content system — easy to manage and expand

This isn’t just a portfolio — it’s my personal reference point, an experimental space, and an honest expression of who I am:

I love low-level systems — that’s why this site is fast and barebones clean
I care about content more than visuals — which is why every section is written with intent
I build for myself first, and for others second — the best way to stay real
