I saw Antigravity, I prompted, I conquered!

New Year, New You Portfolio Challenge Submission

This is a submission for the New Year, New You Portfolio Challenge Presented by Google AI

About Me

Hi, I am Sayandeep Dutta, an undergrad pursuing Computer Science and Engineering. I usually spend my time closing GitHub issues.

I have worked on a couple of projects — Code Sensei and Eco-Todo are the best ones so far. I ship code, work on building my startup, and network all day round with passionate individuals.

How I Built It

Well, portfolios nowadays are getting out of hand. Instead of something super complex, I decided to create a simplistic one, giving it a bit of modern and artistic feel with papers and ink, doodles, and other interesting animations.

Starting with AI Studio and ending at Antigravity!

  • I made the main website on AI Studio and added elements like animations, art, and text, fine-tuning it on Antigravity.
  • Framer Motion powers parallax hero elements, staggered TextReveal letters, and magnetic buttons; the modal gallery reuses AnimatePresence for graceful open/close.
  • Lenis provides easy, weighty scrolling so the sticky project stacks feel anchored while cards scale/rotate with progress.

Tech Stack

  • Vite + React 19
  • TypeScript
  • Tailwind-style utility classes + lucide-react icons
  • Framer Motion for animations
  • Lenis for smooth scrolling
  • Docker + Nginx; Cloud Run/Cloud Build

What I'm Most Proud Of

My website blends editorial aesthetics with modern web portfolios. The paper texture background, hand-drawn doodle overlays, polaroid-style profile photo with a Bengali caption ("হ্যালো ! কি খবর"), and playful sticky note elements create a unique and elegant identity.

  • The editorial encounter with rotating headlines gives a magazine-like feel at the start of the page.
  • Project Cards that scale as you scroll, each with different skins and styles, having a butter smooth animation.
  • Pop-up project cards with description, UI, and a terminal feel.
