Localhost: a terminal-style portfolio template for developers

Localhost is a single-page portfolio for software engineers who'd rather show their work than describe it. The whole page reads like a shell session: a sam@localhost ~/who-is-this header, a whoami intro with a typewriter line, and your projects listed as if you'd run ls ./things-i-made.

What's included

• Typewriter intro that cycles through short lines about you

• Project list with a hover state that reveals a second line of copy, so each row can hold a description and a punchline

• Contact section styled as cat contact.txt, with rows for email, GitHub, Bluesky, LinkedIn and résumé

• Light and dark themes with a built-in toggle. Both modes have been checked for contrast, including the hover states.

• Hidden easter egg: type the Konami code and the accent colour changes

• Responsive layout for desktop, tablet and phone

Easy to make your own

• All colours are colour styles, so one accent change restyles the whole site.

• Text uses shared text styles, set in JetBrains Mono.

• Project rows are a reusable component with fields for name, blurb, hover blurb, meta and link. Duplicate a row, change the text and paste in your link.

Who it's for: developers, engineers, indie hackers and anyone who wants a quiet, fast personal site with some personal
