portfolio

My portfolio website with Next.js, Tailwind CSS and Sanity as CMS.

Quick start

• Signup/Login to Sanity CMS (if not already)
• Create a Sanity Project
• Add required CORS & API settings in the project
• Install Sanity Integration in Vercel
• Add required .env variables for next and studio
• Deploy Sanity Studio - Content Manager
• Deploy to Vercel

Vercel will automatically build sanity and the next project. Afterwards the sanity studio can be called like https://your-vercel-project/studio.

Configuration

Environment

Most parts of the portfolio can be configured by environment variables. Create a .env.local file in the root of your project to configure.

The .env file can contain following configurations:

Key name	Description	Example
NEXT_PUBLIC_URL	URL the frontend is running on	http://localhost:3000
NEXT_PUBLIC_SANITY_PROJECT_ID	ID of your Sanity project	5m2a40us
NEXT_PUBLIC_SANITY_DATASET	Dataset to use for from your sanity project	production
NEXT_PUBLIC_SANITY_API_VERSION	API version of Sanity to use	v2021-10-21
NEXT_PUBLIC_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE	Default language for next	en

Colors

All colors can be changed in the globals.css for your own design. We use three main colors for styling the elements (--primary, --secondary(-ghost) and --tertiary) and a color for the background (--background).

When you change the colors in the globals.css you have to adjust them in the manifest.json, too.

Manifest

To customize the portfolio for your needs, you have to adjust the manifest.json and define your icons and colors there. Check also the _document.tsx for your customizations.

Sanity

Configure sanity like described here.

Start developing

First, run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

API routes can be accessed on http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.ts.

The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/*. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.

Run linting and tests

Linting and tests can be run with

npm run lint
# or
yarn lint

and with

npm run test
# or
yarn test

Building

The portfolio can be building by simply triggering

npm run build
# or
yarn build

Before building the portfolio, Sanity studio dependencies are installed, we build the studio and copy the output to public/studio. Like this it can be accessed later via https://NEXT_PUBLIC_URL/studio.

After building the portfolio, we also create a sitemap for the portfolio with next-sitemap.
