✏️ How to Customize

All content lives in Markdown files inside src/content/. No component code changes needed.

👤 Hero Section — src/content/hero/about.md

---
role: "Your Role Title"
username: "yourname"          # Terminal prompt: yourname@portfolio
hostname: "portfolio"          # Terminal prompt + path
templateUrl: "https://github.com/..."  # "Use Template" header button
bio: "Short bio paragraph."
skills:
  backend: ["FastAPI", "Django"]
  database: ["PostgreSQL", "Redis"]
  devops: ["Docker", "CI/CD"]
  tools: ["Celery", "RabbitMQ"]
---

💼 Experience — src/content/experience/*.md

Create one .md file per job (e.g., 1-company.md):

---
company: "Company Name"
role: "Your Role"
period: "Jan 2024 — Present"
stack: ["Python", "FastAPI", "PostgreSQL"]
order: 1          # Lower = shown first
current: true     # Optional, marks green dot
description: "Project context"
---

- Built something amazing
- Led a team of 5

🚀 Projects — src/content/projects/*.md

---
name: "Project Name"
description: "What the project does."
stack: ["Python", "Selenium"]
icon: "smart_toy"    # Material Symbol name
link: "https://example.com"  # Optional (GitHub, website, etc.)
order: 1
---

Icons: browse Material Symbols

📬 Contacts — src/content/contacts/links.md

---
heading: "Want to collaborate or hire me?"
links:
  # Material Symbol icon (default)
  - label: "hophnidev@gmail.com"
    url: "mailto:hophnidev@gmail.com"
    icon: "mail"
  # Custom SVG icon (e.g. brand logos)
  - label: "github.com/yourname"
    url: "https://github.com/yourname"
    icon: "code"
    iconType: "svg"           # "material" (default) or "svg"
    svgPath: "M12 0c-6.626..." # SVG path data (d attribute)
---

iconType: "svg" renders an inline <svg> with the provided svgPath. Omit it for default Material Symbols.

🎨 Theme Colors — src/styles/global.css

Edit the @theme block to change IDE colors:

@theme {
  --color-bg-dark: #0D1117;       /* Main background */
  --color-ide-gray: #161B22;      /* Panel backgrounds */
  --color-primary: #58A6FF;       /* Accent color */
  --color-accent-green: #3FB950;  /* Terminal green */
}

🌐 Domain & SEO

• Domain: edit public/CNAME
• Site URL: edit site in astro.config.mjs
• Title & Description: edit src/layouts/BaseLayout.astro

🗂️ IDE Features

Closable Tabs

Every tab in the header has a close button (×) that appears on hover — just like VS Code:

• Click × to close the tab and hide its section from the page
• All tabs can be closed
• A "Restore" button appears when tabs are closed — click to reopen all
• Press Ctrl+Z (or Cmd+Z) to restore the last closed tab one by one

Active Tab Tracking

The active tab automatically highlights based on scroll position.

🥚 Easter Eggs

1. 🐛 Stitch Debugger (bottom-right corner)

Stitch peeks from the bottom-right holding a glowing bug.

• Hover → Stitch peeks up fully
• Click → Console log: "Burp! Delicious bugs..."
• Idle → Stitch periodically peeks up on his own

2. 🖥️ Hidden Terminal

Press ` (backtick), ~ (tilde), or Cmd+K / Ctrl+K to open an Ubuntu-styled terminal overlay.

Tab autocomplete — type a partial command and press Tab to complete it.

Command	Output
help	List of available commands
cat skills.json	Tech skills (from hero section)
python3 info.py	Bio in triple quotes
cat contact.sh	Contact links
neofetch	Ubuntu-style ASCII + system info
fetch_stack	ASCII tech stack table
ls	Virtual file listing
git status	Fake git status
sudo rm -rf /	Glitch effect + ASCII art 💀

Customize commands and neofetch info in src/content/terminal/commands.md

3. 🔍 Stitch Code Reviewer

Hover over any tech badge (in Experience or Projects) — Stitch appears with a speech bubble commenting on the technology.

Customize comments in src/content/stitch/reviews.md

4. 🔒 Copy Guard

Select text inside the Experience section — a toast appears:

"🔒 Data locked. Just kidding, copy whatever you want 😜"

30-second cooldown between triggers.

5. 💥 The Crash

Leave the tab inactive for 5 minutes, then return:

1. Page scrolls to top
2. ALL sections "fall" into a pile with physics
3. Stitch sits on the wreckage: "SYSTEM CRASH — docker-compose down // oops"
4. Move the mouse to reboot — elements spring back to their positions

Change idle duration: edit IDLE_MS in src/components/StitchCrash.astro

6. 🔌 404 Page

Navigate to any invalid URL — Stitch is caught chewing server cables with electric sparks.

🚢 Deployment

Step 1: Create GitHub Repository

git init

git add .
git commit -m "initial commit"
git push -u origin main

Step 2: Enable GitHub Pages

1. Go to Settings → Pages in your GitHub repo
2. Under Source, select GitHub Actions
3. The workflow (.github/workflows/deploy.yml) will auto-deploy on every push to main

Step 3: Verify Deployment

Push to main → wait ~1 min → visit https://YOUR_USERNAME.github.io/YOUR_REPO/

git add .
git commit -m "update portfolio"
git push origin main

🌐 Custom Domain Setup (e.g. hophni.dev)

3a. Set domain in project

public/CNAME — set your domain (no https://):

yourdomain.com

astro.config.mjs — set site to your domain:

export default defineConfig({
  site: 'https://yourdomain.com',
  // ...
});

3b. Configure DNS at your domain registrar

Go to your domain registrar's DNS settings and add these records:

For root domain (yourdomain.com) — add 4 A records:

Type	Name	Value
A	@	185.199.108.153
A	@	185.199.109.153
A	@	185.199.110.153
A	@	185.199.111.153

For www subdomain — add CNAME:

Type	Name	Value
CNAME	www	YOUR_USERNAME.github.io

⏳ DNS changes can take 10 min–48 hours to propagate.

3c. Set domain in GitHub

1. Go to Settings → Pages
2. Under Custom domain, enter yourdomain.com
3. Click Save
4. Wait for DNS check to pass (green checkmark)
5. ✅ Check Enforce HTTPS (appears after DNS verifies)

3d. Verify everything works

# Check DNS propagation
dig yourdomain.com +short
# Should show: 185.199.108.153, ...109, ...110, ...111

# Check HTTPS
curl -I https://yourdomain.com
# Should show: HTTP/2 200

Visit https://yourdomain.com — your portfolio should load with HTTPS 🔒
