š Portfolio thingy.
š Features
The whole portfolio is a React-based app built with Next.js in Typescript, using statically generated pages with a pinch of server-side rendering and server actions.
If you are looking for the former Gatsby-based app, it is archived in the gatsby-deprecated branch.
š One data file to rule all pages
All displayed project content is powered by one YAML file where all the portfolio's projects are defined. The project description itself is transformed from Markdown written inside the YAML file into HTML on build time.
Next.js automatically creates pages from each item in that file utilizing the scripts/prebuild.ts script and the [slug]/page.tsx template.
š¼ Project images
All project images live under public/images and are automatically attached to each project based on the inclusion of the project's slug in their filenames.
Next.js with next/image generates all required image sizes for delivering responsible, responsive images to visitors, including lazy loading of all images. For this to work, images are analyzed on build time and various image metadata is passed down as props.
š± GitHub repositories
The open source section at the bottom of the front page shows selected GitHub repositories, sourced from GitHub.
On build time, all my public repositories are fetched from GitHub, then filtered against the ones defined in _content/repos.json, sorted by the last push date, and provided via the pageContext of the front page.
If you want to know how, have a look at the respective components:
š Location
On client-side, my current and, if known, my next physical location on a city level is fetched from my (private) nomadlist.com profile and displayed in the header.
Fetching is split up into an external serverless function, a server action, and display component. Fetching is done with a serverless function as to not expose the whole profile response into the browser.
If you want to know how, have a look at the respective components:
š Theme switcher
Includes a theme switcher which allows user to toggle between a light and a dark theme, where by default the user's system theme is used automatically. Uses next-themes under the hood.
If you want to know how, have a look at the respective component:
š Client-side vCard creation
The Add to addressbook link in the footer automatically creates a downloadable vCard file on the client-side, based on data defined in _content/meta.json.
If you want to know how, have a look at the respective component:
š Importing SVG assets
All SVG assets will be converted to React components with the help of @svgr/webpack. Makes use of SVGR so SVG assets can be imported like so:
import Logo from "./images/logo.svg";
return <Logo />;š¤ Scripts
š Add a new project
To add a new project, run the following command. This adds a new item to the top of the projects.yml file, creating the title & slug from the argument:
npm run new -- "Hello"Then continue modifying the new entry in _content/projects.yml.
Finally, add as many images as needed with the file name format and put into public/images/:
SLUG-01.png
SLUG-02.png
SLUG-03.png
...š Favicon generation
This generates all required favicon sizes from:
src/images/favicon-512.pngsrc/images/favicon.svg(handcrafted, adaptive based on OS theme)
Also creates a web manifest.
npm run faviconāØ Development
