I Built My Developer Portfolio with Next.js 15 + Tailwind — Here’s How

Hey everyone,

I just launched my new developer portfolio and wanted to share the process, the tech stack, and a few lessons I learned while building it.

Live site: nishul.dev

Features
Projects showcase → highlights my work in full detail
Blog system → where I plan to share dev learnings and project write-ups
Contact form → directly reaches me
SEO & accessibility → so people can actually find it

What I Learned
Using Next.js App Router felt much cleaner for structuring the site
Shadcn UI saved a ton of time styling while still keeping things customizable
Making the portfolio mobile-first early on prevented lots of rework

Feedback Wanted
I’d love feedback on:
Does the design/UX feel smooth and professional?
Any features I should add to make it more engaging?

Thanks for reading, and if you’re working on your own portfolio, I’d love to see it too!
