i kept putting off updating my personal site because every small change meant digging through react components. so i rebuilt it so the whole site lives in one yaml file, and then set it up so my coding agent writes that file for me. you drop your cv, your linkedin pdf export and a few notes into a sources folder, run one command to pull your public github repos, and ask claude code, codex or cursor to build the portfolio. it only uses facts from those files. there's also a check command that fails if anything is still a placeholder, an example link or a missing image, so you don't ship "john doe, senior engineer at example.com" by accident. after using it for my own site i turned it into a template. it's next.js, no cms, no database, one-click deploy to vercel. it also generates llms.txt, markdown and json versions of the site, so ai tools can actually read your portfolio. demo: https://dev-portfolio-delta-drab.vercel.app my own site with it: https://yesildal.me a fictional designer version: https://dev-portfolio-designer.vercel.app repo (free, MIT): https://github.com/umutyesildal/dev-portfolio what would you improve first?   submitted by   /u/yesildaladam [link]   [comments]
