What I liked:

  • The site is very quick.
  • Clean looking font for the Blog, About, and Project content.
  • Minimal feel and very easy for the eyes.
  • Code formatting theme goes well with the site color palette.
  • Overall the content (right side) looks great.

Some ideas I would consider:

  • I would suggest putting the content that's currently in the About section to Home.
  • Create a new section Blog (under the Home) and put there everything that is now in Home. And then remove the About section as it is left empty now.
  • The landing page should be the introduction. Both points above fix that.
  • I would suggest using all the vertical space in the sidebar, that way you could make more margin between items and they would not be so squeezed.
  • Change font for navigation, make the nav items bigger, highlight them. Currently, it is hard to notice there is navigation at all.
  • Center the social media buttons and put them under copyrights.
  • The date and the tags you use under the blog title need re-design. See how it looks without the tag icon. Consider removing it (since you don't use icons anywhere else) to continue the minimalistic approach.
  • Consider developing separate navigation for mobile screens, like the hamburger menu in the top left or right, that opens in the whole screen with the nav list.
