Overview

This project is the development of packet-guide.com, a personal platform to showcase technical projects and share insights through blog posts. The core philosophy is minimalism, speed, and a delightful, distraction-free reading experience.

Key Features Implemented:

  • Static Site Generation (SSG) with Next.js for performance.
  • MDX-based content for both blog posts and project descriptions, allowing for rich content with embedded components.
  • Tailwind CSS v4 for utility-first styling, configured for a "CSS-first" approach.
  • Content-driven workflow: Adding new blog posts or projects is as simple as dropping a new MDX file into the respective content directory.
  • Responsive design for optimal viewing on all devices.
  • Dark Mode support.

Technology Stack:

  • Next.js 14 (App Router)
  • React 19 (via Next.js)
  • TypeScript
  • Tailwind CSS v4
  • next-mdx-remote for MDX processing
  • Hosted on Vercel
