# I Built a Portfolio That Does More Than Show Projects

Most developer portfolios are a collection of projects, skills, and a contact form.

I wanted mine to feel different.

Instead of simply listing what I've built, I tried to make the portfolio itself the best demonstration of my engineering skills. Every interaction, animation, and tiny detail is intentional—from the draggable canvas and hidden easter eggs to an MCP server that lets AI agents explore my work directly.

Along the way, I also built and showcased projects like slash slash, Money Unwrapped, scut, and easybg—tools created to solve real problems, not just fill a portfolio page.

The site reflects how I think about software: build things that are fast, useful, and a little fun to explore.

If you're curious, I'd love to hear what you think.

I built // (Slash Slash) to make repetitive typing effortless.

Just type // in any text field and instantly expand your saved snippets. It's fast, works locally, and saves me a surprising amount of time every day.

Would love to hear your feedback!
