Portfolio Site

My experience building this site with Astro and GitHub Pages

Purpose

Starting my search for internships and my first foray into the job market, I knew I needed a portfolio site. I had thrown together a basic one with WordPress previously, but I wanted something that was simpler and a bit more unique to me.

Design

I wanted a super simple design without anything to distract from the main purpose of the site (showing my work and who I am as a person).

Even though I’m used to WordPress and do almost all of my work there, I wanted to design the site myself and not have to create a whole WordPress theme to do so.

Mockups

Here you can see my mockups I put together in Figma (my first time using it I might add).
