A beautiful template for your personal website
Hello open source explorer, we have created this repository to help you start building your personal website using modern open source technologies that our organization recommends.
These technologies are:
- NuxtJS because the framework provides one of the easiest development experience for performant VueJS web applications
- TailwindCSS because there is a strong ecosystem forming around utility-first CSS
Since our template uses the NuxtJS framework, you will find it useful to know why one would want to use Nuxt
And since the Nuxt framework is built upon the vVueiew framework, you will also find it useful to know why one would want to use Vue
If you are familiar with CSS, you may be asking why we are using tailwind. This is a valid question, and the answer I found was within this compelling talk by Sarah Dayan about the utility-first CSS approach
