Building this portfolio as a build log

Most portfolio sites curate away the mess: a handful of polished projects, a tidy bio, a stock-photo headshot. That felt dishonest for where I actually am — most of my public work is small, timeboxed practice, not finished products.

So instead of hiding that, this site leans into it:

• Projects are pulled live from the GitHub API, not hand-picked and frozen in time.
• A small number of repos get a full case-study writeup; the rest link straight out to GitHub.
• The experience timeline reads like a changelog, in chronological order, not reordered for effect.

Stack

Built with Next.js (App Router), TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS v4. Blog posts are MDX files rendered server-side with next-mdx-remote, no extra content pipeline. Dark mode via next-themes, motion via motion.

PLACEHOLDER — replace this post with a real write-up once the site has actually shipped.
