Why I chose to code my own portfolio
Briefly

"I have a background and experience in frontend development, which genuinely enhances my abilities as a designer. Understanding product development from a developer's perspective and being able to communicate in that language is a real skill that benefits a product designer."
"I had complete control over every aspect of the website... From creative decisions, such as foundational visual styles, to functional choices like website structure, I was able to implement everything exactly the way I wanted."
"I designed my portfolio in Figma, coded it from scratch using HTML, CSS, and React in VS Code, and hosted it on Firebase - all at absolutely zero cost."
"Building and maintaining the website is time-consuming and requires ongoing effort to keep it updated and functioning smoothly."
