Template Details

simplefolio-next is a personal portfolio template built with Next.js and TypeScript, inspired by Simplefolio. The README states that its data is centralized in src/constants/userData.json, making it easy to update the hero, about, projects, contact, and other content; themes are defined in src/styles/theme.scss, can be selected via the Theme field in the JSON, and can also be extended manually. The project uses modular SCSS styling, integrates scrollReveal and tilt effects, and states that metadata is updated dynamically to improve search engine visibility. The footer can be configured with social links, a GitHub button, and copyright information.

The README does not provide the template's complete page structure, component list, build output size, browser compatibility range, or production deployment steps, nor does it state whether extended capabilities such as a blog, CMS, or form backend are included. The installation instructions cover local development only: Node.js v16 or higher is required, dependencies are installed with yarn or npm, and the development server is viewed at http://localhost:3000.

How this score is calculated

Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.

The catalog identifies Next.js as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.
