Minimal React Portfolio

Hi everyone 👋,
I have been working on my personal portfolio for two days now. I designed it using Adobe XD and built it using React. it is minimal, nothing extraordinary. A simple black and white layout.

It is a way for me to practice CSS and share something. Hence, I thought why not make it public, and share it with others to use it or give me feedback.

demo link: https://minimal-reactjs-portfolio.netlify.app/

repo: https://github.com/shehabshalan/minimal-react-portfolio

Here is what it looks like

Demo

Thanks for reading!

Love it mate! Really simple and elegant. Since you're making your page with React, I would suggest a few things:

  1. Try out Preact. It offers you similar experience with much less JavaScript
  2. Statically generate your website: Astro is perfectly good for fully static pages.

One of my hobbies is to make static websites as small as possible. Ofc you shouldn't sweat over a few kbs of extra code, but I see it as a good way to keep my skill sharpen
Here's my page built with Astro: kienngo.vercel.app/

This site looks like a candidate for plain HTML and CSS
