Portfolio.v2 is my 2nd portfolio website. This site showcases my growth as a web developer after my internship at FarmAfield. It contains the same content as my first portfolio but has a different design and tech stack. The design was inspired by Netflix.

Design

The hero image was taken in Iceland during my study abroad trip in 2022.
The card cover images were from
Portfolio.v1

which were designed in Adobe Express and Figma.
The logo/favicon was designed in Adobe Express as a PNG, then traced in Figma for SVG (Sadly Adobe Express doesn't support export to SVG). Adobe has a converter tool, but it's hit-or-miss. So I usually just use Figma and trace the outline with a pen tool. Then export the frame as an SVG.

Development Details

Framework

I developed it in Django, which is a full-stack web framework that uses python in the backend and HTML, CSS, JavaScript in the frontend.

Hosting & Deployment

Portfolio.v2's code lives on GitHub
