Hello World — Building My Portfolio
July 1, 2026 · 1 min read
Welcome to my new website! This is a placeholder post — replace it with your own writing whenever you're ready.
Why I built this site
Every developer needs a home on the web. I wanted a place to:
- Showcase the projects I've worked on
- Share what I'm learning through blog posts
- Make it easy for people to get in touch
The tech stack
This site is built with:
- Next.js — React framework with the App Router
- Tailwind CSS — utility-first styling
- TypeScript — type safety everywhere
- MDX — Markdown with React components for blog posts
Here's a taste of what code blocks look like:
export function greet(name: string): string {
return `Hello, ${name}!`;
}
console.log(greet("world"));
Writing new posts
Adding a post is as simple as dropping a new .mdx file into the content/blog folder with a bit of frontmatter:
---
title: "My Post Title"
date: "2026-07-01"
description: "A short summary shown in the post list."
---
That's it — the post list, reading time, and individual page are generated automatically.
Tip: You can use blockquotes, bold, italics, links, and any standard Markdown syntax.
Thanks for reading!
