A modern, responsive and customizable portfolio builder for Developers!

https://arifszn.github.io/ezprofile

ezProfile is an easy-to-customize personal dev portfolio builder that is created with React.js. When you manage the code in a GitHub repository, it will automatically render a webpage with the owner's profile information, including a photo, bio, and repositories. Also, it includes space to highlight your details, job history, education history, skills, and recent blog posts.

It's all possible using GitHub API (for automatically populating your website with content) and Article-api (for fetching recent blog posts).

✓ 21 Themes
✓ Google Analytics
✓ Meta Tags
✓ Avatar and Bio
✓ Social Links
✓ Skills
✓ Experience
✓ Education
✓ Projects
✓ Blog Posts

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine.

You'll need Git and Node.js (which comes with npm) installed on your computer.

1. Fork the repo so you have your own project to customize. A "fork" is a copy of a repository.

2. Once you've found a home for your forked repository, clone it.

3. Change into your new directory.

cd ezprofile

4. Install dependencies

npm install

5. Start the development server

npm start

All the magic happens in the file src/config.js. Open it and modify it according to your preference.

These are the default values:

// config.js
module.exports = {
  github: {
    username: 'arifszn', // Your GitHub org/user name. (Required)
    sortBy: 'stars', // stars | updated
    limit: 8, // How many projects to display.
    exclude: {
      forks: false, // Forked projects will not be displayed if set to true.
      projects: [] // These projects will not be displayed. example: ['my-project1', 'my-project2']
    }
  },

The default theme can be specified.

// config.js
module.exports = {
  // ...
  themeConfig: {
    default: 'light',
    // ...
  }
}

Here are some screenshots of different themes.

ezFolio supports both GA3 and GA4. If you do not want to use Google Analytics, keep the id empty.

// config.js
module.exports = {
  // ...
  googleAnalytics: {
    id: ''
  },
}

Besides tracking visitors, ezFolio will track click events on projects and blog posts, and send them to Google Analytics.

Meta tags will be auto-generated from configs dynamically. However, you can also manually add meta tags in public\index.html

Your github avatar and bio will be displayed here.

ezProfile supports linking your social media services you're using, including LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Dribbble, Behance, Medium, dev.to, personal website, and email.

// config.js
module.exports = {
  // ...
  social: {
    linkedin: 'ariful-alam',
    twitter: 'arif_swozon',
    facebook: '',
    dribbble: '',
    behance: '',
    medium: '',
    devto: '',
    website: 'https://arifszn.github.io',
    email: ''
  },
}

To showcase your skills provide them here.

    'JavaScript',
    'React.js',

      from: '2015',
      to: '2019'
    },

      from: '2012',

    }

Your public repo from github will be displayed here automatically. You can limit how many projects do you want to be displayed. Also, you can hide forked or specific repo.

// config.js
module.exports = {
  // ...
  github: {
    username: 'arifszn',
    sortBy: 'stars',
    limit: 8,
    exclude: {
      forks: false,
      projects: ['my-project1', 'my-project2']
    }
  },
}

If you have medium or dev.to account, you can show your recent blog posts in here just by providing your medium/dev.to username. You can limit how many posts to display (Max is 10).

// config.js
module.exports = {
  // ...
  blog: {
    source: 'dev.to',
    username: 'arifszn',
    limit: 5
  },
}

The posts are fetched by Article-api.

Once you are done with your setup and have completed all steps above, you need to put your website online! The fastest approach is to use GitHub Pages which is completely free.

1. Github Pages:

• Rename your forked repository to username.github.io in github, where username is your GitHub username (or organization name).

• Open package.json, and change homepage's value to https://username.github.io.

  // package.json
  {
    // ...
    "homepage": "https://username.github.io",
  }

• Run npm run deploy.

• If you see only README at username.github.io, be sure to change your GitHub Page's source to gh-pages branch. See how to.

  Your personal portfolio will be live at username.github.io. For more info, visit here.

2. Other: You can also host your website to Netlify, Vercel, Heroku, or other popular services. Please refer to this doc for a detailed deployment guide.

I intend to keep my works open source. Please do not discourage me by claiming this work by copying it as your own or removing the footer notice.

If you are using this project and happy with it or just want to encourage me to continue creating stuff, you can do it by just starring and sharing the project.

Any contributors who want to make this project better can make contributions, which will be greatly appreciated. To contribute, clone this repo locally and commit your code to a new branch. Feel free to create an issue or make a pull request.
