Features

• Single-file HTML (index.html) with Tailwind CSS loaded via CDN — zero build step, zero dependencies, fully static.
• Clean, modern, dark-mode design with responsive layout.
• Sections: Header/hero, About (with key metrics), Experience (timeline with detailed achievements), Featured Projects (clickable cards that link directly to the corresponding GitHub repos), Skills (categorized tags), Education, Contact.

Local preview

python -m http.server 8000
# or
npx serve .

Open http://localhost:8000 (or the port shown).

Update process

1. Edit index.html directly (Tailwind classes via CDN, vanilla JS for interactivity like smooth scroll and theme toggle).
2. Commit and push to main.
3. GitHub Pages deploys automatically.

The site is hand-maintained as the single source of truth for the public-facing portfolio. No external CMS or generator.
