Overall, I think the site looks very good and performed very smoothly - great job!

Getting a bit nitpicky:
About me:

  • I like the React logo behind the word "React" conceptually, but think it is a bit hard to read.
  • There seems to be inconsistencies between which words are getting emphasis (or rather aren't). React, Node.js, Java, and Godot are all specifics that have emphasis, while HTML, CSS, Express, and PostgreSQL are left behind.

Projects:

  • I would remove the "Unfortunately, I didn't won the contest" from the end of the Thriving Cities project. It brings attention to the fact that you didn't win instead of focusing on what you learned & what the end product is.
  • Same for the "Ugly Tic-Tac-Toe". I would keep it simple with "CSS only game of Tic-Tac-Toe" to call attention to the fact that you built the thing instead of pushing the reader to feel like you're not good with CSS.

I love the use of the icons to demonstrate what you used to build it, so I'll leave you with a closing remark about the icons:
"Racoon saying I want you to know I'm stealing that"

Thank you for your answer!

That is very good advice. I will change project descriptions and I will take a look to the about me section. Maybe making the React logo more transparent will fix the problem. Also, I should give some love to the other techs as you suggested.

Thank you again! 😄 I am glad that you liked it.
