Hey DEV 👋
I recently rebuilt my personal portfolio, but instead of the usual single-page CV format, I framed it as if it were a real web development studio ("DevLynx"). The idea was to push myself to design and build a full product experience: branding, structure, animations, the works, rather than just a list of projects.
Stack: Next.js 16, Tailwind CSS v4, Framer Motion
Some of what's in there:
- A cinematic scroll system with directional card reveals and scan-line transitions between sections
- A sticky full-page slide effect powered by Lenis smooth scroll
- A glitch-text hero loading sequence
- A floating vertical navbar on desktop that fades based on scroll position

I'd love feedback from this community on a few things specifically:
- Does the "studio" framing land, or does it feel like it's trying too hard to look like a real company?
- Any UX friction you hit, especially on mobile
- Performance - I've been optimizing images and JS but always curious what a fresh set of eyes catches
- Anything that reads as generic/templated vs. distinctive
Happy to return the favor and review portfolios in the comments too. Thanks in advance 🙏
