Redline Portfolio

A minimal, high-contrast portfolio design featuring a strict black and red color palette. Built with focus on UI systems, capabilities, and clean data presentation.

How it works

The portfolio uses a data-driven approach with dynamic content generation:

Data Structure — Projects, capabilities, stack, and stats defined in JavaScript
GSAP Animations — Smooth fade-in animations for cards and content
Lenis Smooth Scroll — Enhanced scrolling experience
Dark Mode Toggle — Interactive button to switch between light and dark backgrounds
Grid Layouts — Responsive grid systems for projects and contact cards

Key features

High-contrast red and black design
Data-driven content generation
Smooth GSAP animations
Dark mode toggle functionality
Responsive grid layouts
Minimal, focused UI
Clean typography with Oswald and Manrope fonts
