Personal website of Frontend Joe

A personal portfolio website for a frontend developer, built with Nuxt 2 and Vue 2. It's a wallpaper-swapping portfolio with sections for skills, about, and contact. There's nothing here that's a reusable tool or library — it's just one person's site.

The component structure is reasonably clean for a personal project — shared primitives like TiltCard and CoolButton are extracted properly rather than duplicated. Uses Nuxt 2's static generation which is the right call for a portfolio. The wallpaper selection feature is a nice touch that makes the site memorable.

The .nuxt build directory is committed to the repo, which is a basic .gitignore mistake and inflates the repo size with generated artifacts. Last pushed January 2023 — Nuxt 2 hit EOL in December 2024, so this is running on unsupported software. 861 stars for a personal portfolio is inflated; this is trending-from-sharing, not technical merit worth emulating. There's no content worth learning from — no novel patterns, no reusable architecture.
