How I Built It

I built my portfolio with Antigravity, Gemini CLI, HTML, CSS and JavaScript. I was looking for retro style simple portfolio with keyboard navigation

Steps

1. I've started with planning mode and simple prompt, I'm big fan of spec-driven development
2. I've checked implementation plan and add couple of manual changes and proceed with it
3. With built-in browser I've easily checked visuals
4. During implementing some small tweaks my tokens were all spent so I install Gemini CLI and finished small CSS changes

What I'm Most Proud Of

I'm proud to create light-weight website, only 69kb, that runs pretty well on desktop and mobile. It was fun to use Google Tools such as Gemini CLI and Antigravity.

I think it's important to think about performance and UX, I want to create something that will not need maintenance and will be fun to use.

I'm glad of my result and had a good time building it.

Have a nice day!
