Veejhay Roy — Personal Portfolio

Live site: vjroy.github.io

A clean, gallery-style portfolio built with Astro: hero, a drag-to-navigate work carousel, about, and contact — plus a hidden terminal easter egg at /terminal (the previous version of this site), reachable from a subtle footer link.

Stack

• Framework: Astro (static output), TypeScript
• Motion: Lenis smooth scroll, Embla drag carousel, IntersectionObserver scroll-reveals, a custom cursor, and an intro loader. All gated behind prefers-reduced-motion and pointer capability.
• Type: General Sans (Fontshare) — closest free match to PP Neue Montreal
• Hosting: GitHub Pages via GitHub Actions

Develop

npm install
npm run dev        # local dev server
npm run build      # static build → dist/
npm run preview    # preview the production build

Deploy

Pushing to main triggers .github/workflows/deploy.yml, which builds with withastro/action and publishes dist/ to GitHub Pages.

One-time setup: in the repo Settings → Pages, set Source to GitHub Actions.
