🌟 Inspiration

As a developer and designer, I wanted a space that truly represents my identity, skills, and projects—something more than just a résumé. The idea was to build a Personal Portfolio that is interactive, professional, and performance-optimized. It should reflect not just my work but also the passion and creativity I bring to every project.

💻 What it does

This Personal Portfolio is a fully responsive, fast, and modern website that showcases:

🧑‍💼 About Me Section – A brief intro, bio, and what I do.
🛠️ Tech Stack – Lists my skills, languages, tools, and frameworks.
📁 Projects Showcase – Highlights selected works with descriptions, tech used, GitHub/live links.
📞 Contact Form – Lets visitors reach out easily via email.
📜 Resume Download – One-click CV download.
🌗 Dark/Light Mode Toggle – For better accessibility and user preference.
📱 Fully Responsive – Looks great on mobile, tablet, and desktop.

🔧 How we built it

This personal portfolio was built using Bolt to efficiently manage frontend/backend integration. The stack includes:

Frontend: React + Tailwind CSS for fast and beautiful UI.
Routing: Handled by Bolt’s internal routing engine.
Deployment: Hosted on Vercel with CI/CD from GitHub.
Backend (optional): Node.js + Express (for contact form handling if needed).
Form Handling: Integrated with EmailJS or Bolt’s backend to send messages directly from the contact form.
Extras: Framer Motion for smooth animations and transitions.

🧱 Challenges we ran into

Design Consistency: Crafting a clean, minimal layout that also feels personalized.
Responsive Layouts: Making sure every section adapts perfectly on all screen sizes.
Performance Optimization: Reducing load times and improving Lighthouse scores.
Form Integration: Setting up form handling without backend or with minimal infrastructure.
