My Portfolio is this website that you're viewing right now. I created it from scratch in November and December of 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic. This website uses configuration files to describe each of my programming projects, and a Node script to generate the static website from those config files. I use the templating language Mustache for splitting HTML into composable pieces, and I use ExpressJS for localhost development.
A makefile manages the generator script and SCSS to CSS conversion. I decided to use Make for build management instead of Yeoman, Gulp, or others because of familiarity and simplicity.
One early goal for the project was to minimize the dependencies, and provide an extremely light-weight site. I decided to avoid React and other similar frameworks, and use Bulma and plain HTML for visual effects. Bulma is a pure css library, making it very lightweight. I also decided to avoid JQuery, preferring built-in operations instead; and there are no polyfills, to keep the Javascript minimal.
