OWS Portfolio 2.0

Reimagining My Archive Of Projects

From Ordinary to Epic: A Game-Changing Portfolio Redesign

My portfolio version 2.0 is a complete overhaul of my original archive of projects, elevating it from a basic, functional layout to an artistic and interactive experience. Inspired by the aesthetic of RPG cards, this redesign showcases a sleek, adventurous theme that combines vibrant icons with dynamic layouts. Each card is crafted to provide, at a glance, all the key details about my work as a software engineer and web developer.

Under the hood, the project features a range of technical customizations:

  • A custom post type was created to better manage and display portfolio items.
  • Using custom fields, I implemented dynamic data for each card, including icon mapping and bespoke tooltips.
  • The archive is powered by a tailored post type query using the WP_Query constructor class and The Loop for WordPress.
  • Improved pagination at both the top and bottom of the page ensures smooth navigation while exploring the portfolio.
  • The layout is seamlessly integrated with my customized Bootstrap-inspired stylesheets, tailored specifically for the Oxygen framework and optimized for responsive design across all screen sizes.
This project showcases my ability to take an idea from concept to completion. I managed every step, from envisioning the aesthetic to designing, coding, debugging, and launching the final product. The result is a visually striking, engaging portfolio that highlights my skills and dedication to creating unique, engaging user experiences.
