I Built a VS Code–Inspired Developer Portfolio

#portfolio #showdev #vscode #webdev

I wanted my portfolio to feel familiar to other developers — not like yet another generic personal website.

So I decided to build a VS Code–inspired portfolio that actually looks and behaves like an IDE. The goal was simple: when a developer opens it, it should feel instantly recognizable.

What it includes:

An editor-style layout with tabs
A sidebar that works like a real code editor
Terminal-inspired sections for content
Draggable Windows.
Fully responsive across devices
Custom Themes Support

Why I built this:
A lot of portfolios focus heavily on flashy animations and visuals. I wanted to take a different approach and focus on familiarity and usability something developers already understand without needing an explanation.

I know it might feel complicated to non devs but I'm planning to implement Easy Mode (switchable) where it changes layout to less complicated VS-Code IDE layout and make it easily understandable to everyone while keeping VS-Code aesthetics
