👔 Portfolio thingy, built with Gatsby.

🎉 Features

The whole portfolio is a React-based Single Page App built with Gatsby v2.

💍 One data file to rule all pages

All content is powered by one YAML file where all the portfolio's projects are defined. The project description itself is transformed from Markdown written inside the YAML file.

Gatsby automatically creates pages from each item in that file utilizing the Project.jsx template.

💅 Theme switcher

Includes a theme switcher which allows user to toggle between a light and a dark theme. Switching between them also happens automatically based on user's local sunset and sunrise times. Uses Cloudflare's geo location HTTP header functionality.

If a visitor has set the theme manually that selection is remembered in localStorage, and is restored on next visit.

If you want to know how, have a look at the respective components:

🏆 SEO component

Includes a SEO component which automatically switches all required meta tags for search engines, Twitter Cards, and Facebook OpenGraph tags based on the browsed route/page.

📇 Client-side vCard creation

The Add to addressbook link in the footer automatically creates a downloadable vCard file on the client-side, based on data defined in data/meta.yml.

💫 Page transitions

Includes mechanism for transitioning between route changes with full page transitions defined with react-pose. Mechanism stolen inspired by gatsby-universal.

📈 Matomo (formerly Piwik) analytics tracking

Site sends usage statistics to my own Matomo installation. To make this work in Gatsby, I created and open sourced a plugin, gatsby-plugin-matomo, which is in use on this site.

🖼 Project images

All project images live under src/images and are automatically attached to each project based on the inclusion of the project's slug in their filenames.

All project images make use of the excellent gatsby-image plugin, working in tandem with gatsby-plugin-sharp and gatsby-transformer-sharp.

All together, Gatsby automatically generates all required image sizes for delivering responsible, responsive images to visitors, including lazy loading of all images. Also includes the intersection-observer polyfill to make lazy loading work properly in Safari.

All project images use one single component where one main GraphQL query fragment is defined, which then gets used throughout other GraphQL queries.

💎 Importing SVG assets

All SVG assets under src/images/ will be converted to React components with the help of gatsby-plugin-svgr. Makes use of SVGR so SVG assets can be imported like so:

import { ReactComponent as Logo } from './components/svg/Logo'

<Logo />

🍬 Typekit component

Includes a component for adding the Typekit snippet.

Development

You can simply use Docker & Docker Compose or install and run dependencies on your local system.

git clone git@github.com:kremalicious/portfolio.git
cd portfolio/

# use Docker
docker-compose up

# or go with local system
npm i
npm start

🔮 Linting

ESlint, Prettier, and Stylelint are setup for all linting purposes:

npm run lint

To automatically format all code files:

npm run format
npm run format:css

🎈 Add a new project

To add a new project, run the following command. This adds a new item to the top of the projects.yml file, creating the title & slug from the argument:

npm run new -- "Hello"

Then continue modifying the new entry in data/projects.yml.

Finally, add as many images as needed with the file name format and put into src/images/:

portfolio-SLUG-01.png
portfolio-SLUG-02.png
portfolio-SLUG-03.png
...

🚚 Deployment

Automatic deployments are triggered upon successful tests & builds on Travis:

  • push to master initiates a live deployment
  • any Pull Request, and subsequent pushes to it, initiates a beta deployment

The deploy command simply calls the scripts/deploy.sh script, syncing the contents of the public/ folder to S3:

npm run deploy

The deploymeng script can be used locally too, the branch checks are only happening for Travis builds, allowing to deploy any branch from local machine.
