This site was built as an example of my Front End Design and Development skills. The goal was to build a modern portfolio site using the skills I've learned so far in my career.  My previous website was geared towards a freelance design-only business.  I do so much more than simple graphics though, now I can show it!

Here are some examples of the work that went into building this:

NextJS was my chosen framework, the reason was I wanted the Server Side Rendering capabilities for SEO and UX reasons.

I wanted to use a headless CMS for my content, though I could hard-code everything in, I wanted to use an external data source.  I chose Sanity.io for my CMS and fetch data from it on all pages of the portfolio.

This site includes appropriate meta-data for Search Engines and each page can be crawled thanks to SSR.

All progress and coding work was integrated with Github and the site deploys directly from code I uploaded to Github.  Check out the code link above to get more details!
