About this site

Built to demonstrate full-stack execution — from idea to running product.

Purpose

This site exists to showcase end-to-end ownership: conceiving, designing, building, deploying, and maintaining production systems with modern tools and strong fundamentals. It's both portfolio and proof-of-concept — demonstrating that I can see a technical project through every phase, solo or at scale.

Under the hood

The site runs on Next.js (App Router) for full-stack React and Tailwind CSS for responsive, theme-aware UI. Data lives in Neon Postgres with Drizzle ORM handling schema and queries. A small Bun-powered REST API serves dynamic routes, with Upstash Redis caching hot data like clap counts for speed. Everything builds, deploys, and is hosted on Vercel, with DNS and domains managed directly.

Internationalization

Localization is handled with next-intl, with locale-aware routing and translated copy for English, Español, and Français. This keeps UI, accessibility text, and SEO in sync across languages.

You can view the résumé or poke around the components — everything from caching to accessibility is here by intent.
