Case Study
July 1, 2026Hello World: Building a Minimal Portfolio
A deep dive into the design decisions and technical architecture behind this very portfolio. Exploring minimalism in engineering.
Hello World
Welcome to my new MDX-powered blog! This post is written in Markdown and parsed via Next.js and MDX.
The Architecture
We are using the following stack:
- Next.js 16 (App Router) for serving pages.
- Tailwind CSS v4 for styling and typography.
- next-mdx-remote for parsing MDX server-side.
Code Snippet
Here is an example of what code looks like:
function hello(name: string) {
console.log(`Hello ${name}!`);
}
This ensures we have a beautifully styled markdown output that automatically inherits our global fonts and themes!
