Portfolio

Personal portfolio of Yiğit Güldal — an economics student building software across data, finance and technology.

Live: deployed on Vercel (guldal.me).

Stack

• Next.js (App Router, server-first)
• TypeScript (strict)
• Tailwind CSS v4 with design tokens and persistent dark/light themes
• MDX for blog posts
• Vercel Analytics & Speed Insights (enabled on Vercel deployments only)

Structure

• app/ — routes, layout and components
• content/ — typed content: site profile, projects, skills
• app/blog/posts/ — MDX posts
• public/projects/ — real project screenshots and covers

Development

pnpm install
pnpm dev

Scripts

• pnpm dev — development server
• pnpm build — production build
• pnpm start — serve the production build
• pnpm lint — ESLint
• pnpm typecheck — TypeScript (no emit)

Content

Content lives in typed modules under content/*.ts and is validated at build time. Each project renders a case study at /projects/[slug]. There is no admin panel or writable API: the repository is the single source of truth.

Legacy routes (/experience, /education, /achievements, /skills, /contact) permanently redirect to the matching homepage sections.
