NextJs Portfolio Tutorial – Build a Responsive Portfolio Website w/ Advanced Animations (2023)
About the Tutorial
In this tutorial, we will explore how to build a responsive portfolio website using NextJs – a React framework for building server-side rendered applications. NextJs provides numerous benefits, including improved performance, SEO optimization, and easy deployment.
Moreover, incorporating advanced animations will add flair and interactivity to your portfolio, making it more engaging for visitors.
Why NextJs?
NextJs combines the best features of both client-side and server-side rendering. With server-side rendering, your portfolio website can load faster, as the HTML content is generated on the server and sent to the client already rendered. Search engines can better index your website with server-side rendering, ensuring higher visibility and SEO rankings.
NextJs also offers built-in routing, code splitting, and automatic compilation, providing a seamless developer experience. It allows you to focus on building your portfolio rather than spending time on configuring complex build systems.
Building a Responsive Portfolio Website
Creating a responsive portfolio website is crucial in today’s mobile-centric world. Users accessing your portfolio on different devices should have a consistent and optimized experience.
NextJs provides features like CSS-in-JS support, which lets you create responsive styles for different screen sizes. You can also utilize CSS frameworks like Tailwind CSS or Chakra UI to speed up the development process.
Furthermore, implementing responsive grids and flexbox layouts will allow your content to adapt to different screen sizes and orientations.
Enhancing with Advanced Animations
By incorporating advanced animations into your portfolio, you can grab the attention of your visitors and provide an engaging experience.
NextJs allows you to use various animation libraries like React Spring or Framer Motion to create stunning animations. You can add fade-ins, transitions, parallax effects, and interactive elements to make your portfolio stand out.
Remember to keep the animations smooth and not overwhelm the user with excessive movements. Subtle and purposeful animations can leave a lasting impression and highlight your skills as a developer or designer.
Conclusion
Building a responsive portfolio website using NextJs with advanced animations can elevate your online presence and showcase your skills effectively. Implementing server-side rendering and optimizing for different screen sizes will improve the user experience, while animations will add a touch of creativity and interactivity.
With NextJs, you have the power to create a dynamic and visually appealing portfolio website that will leave a lasting impression on your visitors. So, roll up your sleeves and start building your dream portfolio today!

Hi Judy! Firstly, thanks a ton for creating this tutorial, I have enjoyed the tutorial so far, however I am facing an issue in the Achievement Section where you animate the numbers, I am unable to animate the numbers and their value come out to be zero. At 2:04:17
I tried using react-spring library, but it didn't turn out as expected.
I even used parseFloat instead of parseInt as one of the values I have is a decimal number. I would really appreciate it, if you could help me out on this. Thank you so much again, this is a really good tutorial.
This is really amazing ! but I can't do the email part. I got 'Attempted import error: 'renderToReadableStream' is not exported from 'react-dom/server' (imported as 'renderToReadableStream')

I am following until 38:24, when I trying to use XmarkIcon system will report Unhandled Runtime Error, it was so weird
Can you please update the code in your Github repo based on this video? Why aren't they the same? Thx (EDIT: I'm having the same problem as the other guy related to : "TypeError: Cannot destructure property 'email' of 'body' as it is undefined.)
EDIT 2: made some progress by changing in the route.js: const { body } = await \req.json(); to const { body } = req;
but getting this error:
{
"statusCode": 422,
"name": "invalid_parameter",
"message": "The `to` fields are an invalid email address"
}
Holy shit, i never knew vs code had its own browser. Thats going to make everything so much easier o.o
