The idea is to describe your projects in markdowns files, that you can store alongside the projects themselves, in e.g. my-project/.ortfo/description.md</p> <p>Then, the CLI collects all those markdown files, plus any media file you reference in them, and creates an easily digestible JSON file with every project in it.</p> <p>The tool has support for thumbnail generation, specifying tags, technologies (to say that you used e.g. Svelte for a project, FL Studio for a music album or oil painting for a painting), complex layouts (to put stuff pictures side by side for example), proeminent colors extraction, and more.</p> <p>There's also an "exporter" plugin system to easily upload the resulting json file anywhere, or integrate with static site generators</p> <p>I'm using it with go-templ to generate my own portfolio site, <a href="https://ewen.works">https://ewen.works</a> (source code is at <a href="https://github.com/ewen-lbh/portfolio">https://github.com/ewen-lbh/portfolio</a>)</p> webdev frontend go showdev
