2026-05-17 — Added a /portfolio page and a top-nav link for it

Did:

  • Added a new #/portfolio page that lists five projects in the same .data-row aesthetic used on the About page work history. Order: wndr.ist, blurb, scrask-bot, brewnbanter.app, my-claude-skills.
  • Added "portfolio" to the top nav, between "about" and "work".
  • Wired the home-page "Apps & hobby projects" link (was a dead div) to route to #/portfolio.
  • Added a small teaser block inside #/resume (between Preview and Summary) that points to #/portfolio via a cta-link button.
  • Added CSS for .portfolio, .portfolio-hero, .portfolio-summary, plus reusable bits: .project-row clickable title, .project-links for repo / live URL, .inline-code, .portfolio-foot, .cta-link.
  • Updated the JS router to accept an optional data-target for in-page scroll (kept generic — not currently used).

State now:

  • Five routes: home, about, portfolio, resume (labeled "work"), contact.
  • Two of the five projects (wndr.ist and brewnbanter.app) are in private repos. Their rows link to the live URL only, no repo → link, to avoid 404s for visitors.
  • Public repo links (blurb, scrask-bot, my-claude-skills) are wired through.
  • #/resume content is intact end to end (hero, pitch with three reasons, PDF mock, summary), with one new "also · I build things" teaser added before the summary.
  • Page renders under all four palettes; CSS uses variables throughout.

Next:

  • Browser-check the deep-link click flow: home → "Apps & hobby projects" → lands on #/portfolio cleanly.
  • Browser-check #/resume → "See the portfolio →" CTA.
  • Decide whether to flip wndr.ist or brewnbanter.app public so the repo links can be added.

Decisions:

  • Two of the project repos are private, so their cards omit the repo → link rather than send visitors to a private-repo 404. Live URLs are still surfaced.
  • Tags use a mix of language and category (ai, aws, python, typescript, skills) instead of strict language to avoid two adjacent rows both showing "typescript".
  • Dropped sandip.dev from the project list (was a placeholder during the earlier draft; user's final list of five didn't include it).
  • Resume page keeps its original content end to end. Only a small // also · I build things block was inserted before the summary, plus a See the portfolio → CTA.
  • Portfolio is in the top nav between "about" and "work" rather than after "work", because the natural read order is about-me → things-I-built → formal-resume → contact.
