I've recently launched my personal site at https://josan.ro using Jekyll.
Right now, the design pieces are some of my dribbble shots, but I'm working on launching some detailed case studies for some of them :). The resume part I believe is structured nicely (please tell me if you think otherwise).
I've also included a light/dark color theme switcher which was fun to make :D to please everyone. 🦄
Wow, dude. Awesome site! Those floaty bubbles do an excellent job of drawing you in 💯💯
Thanks a lot, David! Those animated bubbles are the only thing I didn't code myself. They're an adaptation of this https://codepen.io/nashvail/pen/wpGgXO
Thanks again for the nice words!
Very clean! I love it.
The only minor nitpick I can think of is that viewing a 'Work' open up to a different site so a user needs to use the back button to navigate back to your site. However, I can see how this would be desired as well, since the other site seems to be a social portfolio.
Could possibly open it up in a new tab, to have the benefits of both.
Well, the only 2 pages of the site are "Works" and "Resume", so the users are always on one of them, so there's no need to use the back button. Basically, "Works" is the homepage.
Thanks a lot for the kind words! I will definitely be improving this in the following weeks and adding new interesting things.
Nice work and nice site! I am not a developer and work on UI/UX - I'm always on the look for nice portfolio sites. I wish I could build one like yours simple and clean.
Thanks a lot for the kind words mate! I'm so glad cleanliness and simplicity are appreciated. Nothing stops you from building cool simple stuff 🦄
Did mine as minimal as possible. How do you like it? https://simon-frey.eu
The mobile first homepage is very clean.
I like it, @natan! I've been really appreciative on the minimal approach for personal sites. Your site is concise and straight to the point with easy links to find what your projects are and where to learn more. 💯
I recently launched my site too. I got a lot of inspiration from folks I look up to and put something together to make it my own. I’m a big fan of having a home page that lets you skim everything.
My hope is that the site will help me open the door to meeting other indie hackers who are at a similar path/phase.

Subscribed to your mailing list, interested in following your story.
I think the website does a good job of describing your goals and your blog discusses topics in a very realistic manner. Often times people like to hide a lot of the thoughts and emotions like self doubt, but I appreciate the candid tone of your blog. It's healthy to know that I'm not the only one thinking these things.
I really appreciate that. Thank you!
My goal is to just be honest and share what I'm going through vs trying to come across as prescriptive. I'm always a bit wary when I come across folks who seem to know it all, ya know?
I just recently rebuilt my site and thought instead of shamelessly promoting it by itself, I'd shamelessly promote it alongside other indie hackers.
The aim of my site is to serve as a place to show my resume, share fun projects and to start blogging more regularly.
I didn't want to wait until it was perfect to put it live; so some of the content and grammar is a bit rushed. But I'm happy I put it online flawed instead of never putting it online waiting for it to be flawless.

Good idea to promote along others lol. I recently did the same and was wondering how I should go about doing it.
I like the structure you got. I took a similar approach on my site and I was hugely inspired by another indie hacker’s recent site refresh. I really like the having one page to skim everything 👍
Am about to launch this facebook group lead generation software as well: https://group leads.net
What do you think about this my people?
