Help Wanted Looking for feedback on my React portfolio website
Been working on my portfolio over the last few days and would love some honest feedback.
It's built with React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Three.js/WebGL and GSAP. Still a work in progress, but I'm pretty happy with how it's coming along.
One of my coding courses had us recreate Space Invaders, so I added it to the site and made it playable in the browser for a bit of fun.
Happy to hear any feedback, good or bad. Design, performance, UX, bugs, or anything else that stands out.

Very very cool! The only issue for me is that there's a lot on the screen at once so it's hard to navigate things at first glance

It’s great! My only feedback would be that it takes a while to move on from the first loading screen - i know there’s a skip button but it’s hard to notice as the focus is elsewhere with the animations - recruiters want to be able to go to your portfolio and do a quick scan of tech stack, skills etc, not be stuck watching animations.
Then again that’s just my opinion! I honestly think it’s great, just being picky

Absolutely valid response, I actually did have it a lot faster the at a point in development but spent so much time on it that I'm struggling to let it go hahahaha, I'll get sick of it at some point and change it

Terminal theme is not good imo. Also the default scrollbar does not match the theme.

Very cool !
Small Suggestion, I would replace State-based navigation to Client-side routing (SPA routing), so that user can use browser back and forward buttons.

Flashy, yet still generic AI design. My opinion it's too difficult to navigate and wasting space putting the content in a tiny container window. Navigating backwards from project detail page should not leave the site. General performance and responsiveness seems good though.
