Next.js Portfolio Website

A performant personal portfolio with i18n, animations, and modern design patterns built with Next.js 16 and React 19.

Overview

Needed a portfolio that would stand out in a crowded market of developer portfolios. It had to showcase technical expertise through its own implementation — with buttery smooth animations, perfect accessibility scores, bilingual content, and a design that feels premium without being over-the-top.

• GSAP-powered scroll animations with SplitText
• Three.js 3D elements and interactions
• Seamless Romanian/English i18n switching
• Dark theme with custom Tailwind CSS 4 tokens
• Server Components and App Router architecture

Results

The portfolio achieves 100/100 Lighthouse performance scores and loads in under 1 second on 4G connections. The bilingual implementation seamlessly serves Romanian and English audiences. Scroll-driven animations maintain 60fps across all tested devices, and the site has generated multiple freelance inquiries since launch.
