Introducing creatingg - showcase your portfolio with a website built in minutes.

Project Introduction

Creatingg is a no-code portfolio website builder, efficiently completed in minutes. It was built to make maintaining a personal portfolio simple. all you need is to just signup and fill in your personal information and your projects and get you good to go.

Inspiration, idea, and problem

After being frustrated with maintaining my personal website, I decided to build a no-code web (creatingg) to help users quickly create and maintain their personal portfolios.

the website steers away from user customization in favor of a quick and seamless creation process, allowing users to create a personal portfolio in minutes; with a total of only 2-steps, it's a painless process.

I've more to add later, just decided to get something up and running as quickly as possible.

Tech stack

To build this app I used the following technologies;

Nextjs
Chakra UI
TypeScript
Prisma
PlanetScale

Difficulties

Here are some difficulties that I faced during the development process:

It was the first time to use Planetscale, and the first time to use Typescript with Prisma.
It was a bit hard for me to come up with a nice-looking UI as I'm not a designer

What's next

Here are some features I would like to add to this product as the project grows.

Portfolio visits analytics: by showing the portfolio owner the total number of people who viewed his/her portfolio.
Github and Google Auth
Color customization: by allowing user to customize their portfolio colors palette
Contact Form: adding a contact form for portfolio to get feedback.
Domain: generating subdomain for user's portfolio domain

Conclusion

Yeah, that's a wrap. it was fun building this project and I hope the Hashnode and PlanetScale team will like it!
