Quite subjective, we all are.

I saw this template on cdnjs and fell in love. What I had before this website was an awful portfolio type site that had links on the side and a slideshow with all the images and wasn't very mobile-friendly. I knew I needed to update it... and I am absolutely fascinated with minimalism.

I've been a big fan of Lee Robinson's website, which is built with Next.js: https://leerob.io/ * Stylistic enough to have some heart, but simple enough to not have the design get in the way * Great content, his blog posts are a good mixture of technical and general thoughts * I like his timeline on the about me page which provides some flavor to his experience. As I was working on my personal site I was peeking into…

i love the idea of the timeline :)

I quite like the website of Paul Stamatiou, a designer at Twitter. It’s primarily a blog about his interests (photography, gear, etc), but I think the site itself is well done and helps advertise his skills. He just posted an article about the design of the site itself: https://paulstamatiou.com/about-this-website/

Don't know what it is... but that site is beautiful. I think its like a "friendly" minimalism. The "pop of placement" perhaps.
