In an effort to distinguish myself from other designers and developers, I've concentrated on crafting a distinctive layout with motion at the forefront. At the initiation of the design phase, I already had specific ideas in mind for my portfolio, including virtual scrolling, WebGL, split-text animations, and smooth page transitions. The development aspect posed a bit of a challenge, considering these were new effects for me; nevertheless, it proved to be a valuable learning experience. For hosting, I utilized AWS (S3, CloudFront, Route 53).
