Thank you for taking the time to look at my portfolio website's repository!
It's a simple project, but I hope it can demonstrate a few things about how I prefer to work and what is valuable to me as a developer.
Here's a few things to call out:
- Meaningful, standardized commit messages - I like to be able to browse a project's history and quickly find when and why things were added or changed.
- Easy development setup - The very first thing added to this project was the configuration for VS Code Dev Containers. Development setup is as simple as pressing "open in dev container".
- CI/CD - Another early addition was CI/CD via GitHub Actions. For a simple project like this, I added two things: PR checks that ensure each change going into
mainfollows formatting rules and didn't break the build, and deployment automation that packages the app into a docker container and publishes it to GitHub's container registry. - Simple, logical project layout - This is certainly easier to do on such a small project, but there is still effort put into reusing components and layouts, and organizinging logically into folders.
