Gatsby Portfolio Site

A Gatsby-powered portfolio site with styled-components, typing animation, and project showcase pages.

About this template

Gatsby_site is a Gatsby-based portfolio site template that packages a developer's personal brand, project showcase, and career timeline into a Netlify-deployable static site.

What is Gatsby_site?

Gatsby_site is a portfolio website starter built with Gatsby, the React-based static site generator, and styled with styled-components. It takes a developer's personal details and professional history and renders them as a multi-section site: a hero with a typing animation, a tech stack list, a full about section, an experience timeline, education, certifications, a skills matrix, and a contact block. The repository is authored by Kishore Kumar S and is set up to deploy to Netlify; the live site runs at kishore.netlify.app.

Key Features

  • Gatsby static generation — pre-renders HTML for SEO and fast loads while keeping a React component model for dynamic interactions.
  • styled-components styling — component-scoped CSS-in-JS theming; the repo lists 'theme' among its topics so colors and fonts are configurable.
  • react-typing-animation — adds a typewriter effect to the hero role line (e.g., 'Full Stack Developer').
  • Project pages with architecture context — featured projects include request-flow diagrams and tech tags, and each project has its own detail page (the site includes pages for ecommerce-nestjs-backend and nestjs-sequelize-multi-tenant).
  • Complete career sections — a skills matrix grouped into application development, database, DevOps/Infra, AI/emerging, API/auth, and languages, plus experience entries with quantified outcomes.
  • PWA setup — the Gatsby config includes a manifest and metadata topics, giving the site installability and social-sharing settings.
  • All content sections — hero, about, tech stack, all projects, experience, education, skills, certifications, and contact are included out of the box.

Who is it for?

  • Full stack developers who want a ready-made Gatsby portfolio that shows off their tech stack, projects, and work history without writing a site from scratch.
  • Job seekers building a professional online presence can customize the experience and education sections with their own roles and accomplishments.
  • Gatsby learners looking for a working example of a configured Gatsby site with plugins, styled-components, and metadata can study the repository structure and tweak it.

What can you do with Gatsby_site?

  • Developers: clone the repository, replace the content in the sections with your own details, and deploy the resulting site to Netlify for a live portfolio.
  • Freelancers: present featured projects with architecture diagrams and tech tags to communicate engineering decisions to potential clients.
  • Students: use the education and certification sections to document academic progress alongside side projects, as the author (a Master of IT student) does.
