Portfolio
How I Built It
I used Google AI Studio to help ideate and implement my portfolio for the New Year, New You challenge. I then refined the project locally by enhancing each section with relevant images and showcasing my certificates.
The portfolio is built using React, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS, focusing on a clean, responsive design and maintainable component structure.
What I'm Most Proud Of
Custom Animation System Built five reusable animation components (Aurora, ClickSpark, GlitchText, Bounce, FadeContent) that bring the portfolio to life without compromising performance.
Performance-First Custom useInViewOnce hook optimizes animations using Intersection Observer, triggering only when elements enter the viewport.
Project Showcase Two distinct sections (grid + timeline) highlight 14+ projects across backend APIs, mobile apps, and full-stack applications.
Production Deployment Dockerized with Nginx, deployed to Google Cloud Run with automatic scaling—ready for real-world use.
Crafting software requires artistry, guided by imagination, grounded in logic, endlessly enduring.
