Devfolio documentation

Build your portfolio.
Make it yours.

Devfolio is a modern portfolio platform built for Roblox developers, creators, scripters, builders, UI designers, and developers.

Overview

Introduction

Devfolio is a lightweight developer portfolio platform designed to make creating and publishing a personal portfolio simple.

Showcase your profile, projects, skills, social links, experience, and other developer information without building everything from scratch.

What is Devfolio?

A customizable portfolio foundation that can grow from a simple personal site into a complete portfolio platform.

01

Minimal

A clean interface focused on your work rather than unnecessary visual noise.

02

Responsive

Designed to work across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.

03

Customizable

Change your content, components, styling, layout, and branding.

04

Open source

Fork the project and create your own version on top of the existing foundation.

Installation

Getting started

Get Devfolio running locally in just a few steps.

Requirements

Make sure you have Node.js 18.18 or newer, npm, and Git installed.

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/logicnestxvoidlure/devfolio.git
cd devfolio

Install dependencies

npm install

Start the development server

npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000 once the development server has started.

Development

Development workflow

Devfolio uses Next.js with TypeScript and Tailwind CSS and follows the Next.js App Router architecture.

npm run dev

Changes made inside the application are reflected automatically by the development server.

Configuration

Portfolio data

The starter portfolio currently uses demo data stored inside lib/demo-data.ts .

This is the primary place to customize the example portfolio before connecting Devfolio to a database.

Available information

Profile

Display name, username, headline, bio, avatar, and location.

Skills

Technologies, tools, and skills displayed throughout the portfolio.

Socials

Links to platforms such as Roblox, Discord, and GitHub.

Projects

Titles, descriptions, roles, images, tags, links, and featured status.

Example

export const demoPortfolio: Portfolio = {
  username: "yourusername",
  displayName: "Your Name",
  headline: "Roblox Developer",
  bio: "I create Roblox experiences and systems.",
  avatar: "YOUR_AVATAR_URL",

  skills: [
    "Luau",
    "Roblox Studio",
    "UI/UX",
    "Building"
  ],

  socials: {
    roblox: "YOUR_ROBLOX_URL",
    discord: "YOUR_DISCORD_URL",
    github: "YOUR_GITHUB_URL"
  },

  projects: [
    {
      id: "1",
      title: "My Roblox Game",
      description: "A Roblox project I worked on.",
      role: "Scripter",
      image: "YOUR_IMAGE_URL",
      tags: ["Luau", "Roblox"],
      link: "YOUR_GAME_URL",
      featured: true
    }
  ]
};
Content

Projects

Projects are part of the portfolio data structure. Each project contains information used by the project card component.

Property Description
id Unique identifier for the project.
title Name displayed for the project.
description Short explanation of the project.
role Your role on the project.
image Project preview image.
tags Technologies or categories.
link External project URL.
featured Whether the project is featured.
Navigation

Routes

Devfolio currently includes three primary application routes.

Route Purpose
/ Demo public portfolio.
/dashboard Starter portfolio editor.
/u/[username] Public username-based portfolio.

Public profiles

Username-based portfolios can be accessed through the dynamic route.

/u/logicnest

The current implementation uses demo data. A database implementation can use the username to retrieve the corresponding portfolio.

Customization

Styling

Global styling is located inside app/globals.css .

You can customize colors, typography, spacing, animations, backgrounds, cards, navigation, portfolio sections, and responsive behavior.

Tip

Start by changing the global design tokens, then modify individual components when you need more specific changes.

UI

Components

Reusable UI components are located inside the components/ directory.

navbar.tsx

Handles the main portfolio navigation.

portfolio.tsx

Provides the main portfolio presentation.

project-card.tsx

Displays individual portfolio projects.
