## 🚀 Quick Start

### Option 1: Clone & Open

```bash
git clone https://github.com/byte-way/developer-portfolio.git
cd developer-portfolio
```

Open `index.html` in your browser. That's it.

### Option 2: Use as Template

Click the **"Use this template"** button at the top of this repo to create your own copy.

### Option 3: Download

Download the ZIP from the green **Code** button and extract it.

---

## 🎨 Customization

### 1. Personal Info

Edit `index.html` and replace the placeholder content:

```
Your Name        → your actual name
your.email@...   → your email
linkedin/example → your LinkedIn URL
github/example   → your GitHub URL
```

### 2. Colors

All colors are defined as CSS custom properties in `css/style.css`:

```css
:root {
    --bg-primary: #060610;        /* Main background */
    --accent: #818cf8;            /* Primary accent (indigo) */
    --accent-secondary: #34d399;  /* Secondary accent (green) */
    --accent-warm: #f59e0b;       /* Warm accent (amber) */
}
```

### 3. Fonts

The template uses [Inter](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Inter) for body text and [JetBrains Mono](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/JetBrains+Mono) for code. Change them in the Google Fonts `<link>` tag in `index.html`.

### 4. Sections

Each section is a self-contained `<section>` block. Remove, reorder, or duplicate as needed:

```
#home        → Hero with intro
#about       → About cards
#expertise   → Tech stack
#projects    → Project showcases
#experience  → Career timeline
#writing     → Blog articles
#contact     → Contact form
```

### 5. Projects

Project cards use a skeleton style. Edit the project blocks in `index.html`:

```html
<article class="project-showcase reveal">
    <div class="project-showcase-visual">
        <div class="project-showcase-skeleton">
            <i class="fas fa-your-icon"></i>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="project-showcase-content">
        <h3 class="project-showcase-title">Your Project</h3>
        <p class="project-showcase-description">Description here.</p>
    </div>
</article>
```

## ⚡ Performance

Lighthouse scores on a clean deployment:

| Metric | Score |
|--------|-------|
| Performance | 95+ |
| Accessibility | 90+ |
| Best Practices | 95+ |
| SEO | 90+ |

Key optimizations:
- No render-blocking JS (script at bottom of `<body>`)
- Single event listener for mousemove, single listener for scroll
- All CSS animations use compositor-only properties (`transform`, `opacity`)
- `IntersectionObserver` for lazy reveals (no scroll position polling)
- Firefox detected at runtime → heavy effects disabled automatically
