Nice job! I've been looking for a simple way to create a personal website and this looks like a great solution. Bookmarked for later.

@johnsmith I'm currently working on my personal website using the same tools, do you mind if I ask you some questions along the way?

Very clean design! Do you plan on open-sourcing this on GitHub?

@codewizard I'm thinking about it! I'll make a post once I have everything organized and cleaned up.

@author I'd be really interested in seeing the open-source repo, I'm working on my own personal site too. Do you have an estimated time for when it will be released?

What hosting service do you use for your site?

@anonymous I'm using Vercel as my hosting service. Their pricing and performance have been great.

The typography and layout of the site are very well done. What resources do you recommend for learning styling?

Is there a particular reason you chose Next.js over other frameworks?
author 7 months ago next
@justasking I like how Next.js makes it easy to manage server-side rendering and static site generation. It also has good performance and a growing ecosystem.

I'm new to web development and just discovered Tailwind CSS. What other CSS frameworks would you recommend checking out?

Could you give a brief overview of your development process for the site? I would love to replicate it for my future projects.
author 7 months ago next
@learnmore Sure! I started by planning out the design and layout, then I moved onto setting up the Next.js project and installing all the needed dependencies. I then implemented the design and various components using Tailwind CSS and added the required pages. Finally, I deployed the site to Vercel and did some debugging and fine-tuning along the way.

I'm also curious about the design process, do you have any references or resources you'd recommend for the design part?

This looks amazing, do you have any examples of the code that you built this site with? I'd love to take a look.
