Objective

The objective of this project was to develop a website to showcase some of the other things I've built.

Built with React and TypeScript in 2023.

Use

This project is not intended to be used as a template or guide, but it can definitely can be used as "inspiration." Please link back to this repo or MalakaiSpann.com if you do.

Installation

Developed. built, and deployed using Node v18.15.0

cd client 
npm i

Building and Testing

Test the app using a server on your machine

cd client
npm run start

Generating a production build

cd client
npm run build

I used Vercel to serve the app. If you want to view the production build on a local server you can use something like serve.

Inspirations

While making the site, I looked to these great sites for design ideas:

• Maverick a.k.a SupaCode's Portfolio
• Olaolu Olawuyi's Portfolio
• V4 of Brittany Chiang's Portfolio
• Diogo Correia's Portfolio
• Akshay's Portfolio

Go checkout these talented devs!

Friendly reminder: don't be a weirdo who steals source code. Even when credited, it's still pretty shady to straight copy someone else's work. The occasional peak when you're stuck is fine, but learn how to do it yourself... it'll get you much farther!

Future Plans

1. Currently, the site only showcases highlight projects. I plan on creating a section to include less prominent ones.

Any major changes other than the one(s) above won't be happening in this site. I might create a new version though.

See my personal thoughts and takeaways from this project.

Thanks,
