Old portfolio

Before this site, my portfolio felt more like a game. You land in a small outdoor world with grass, trees, flowers, and rocks, and walk a character around it. Yes, there’s a jump button.

React Three Fiber and drei draw the world, and Rapier handles the physics, so you walk and jump on real ground and bump into the edge of the world instead of falling off it. On phones you get an on-screen joystick and a jump button, right after it politely asks you to turn your phone sideways. There’s music too.

3D models get heavy fast, so I compressed them with gltf-pipeline and put a loading screen in front of the wait. Lighthouse and Vercel Speed Insights told me when I was making it slow.
