# My Portfolio Website
This repository contains the source code for my personal portfolio website. It's built with PHP, LESS, and JavaScript, and features a custom back-end for easy content management. A key architectural decision was to use JSON files for data storage instead of a traditional database like MySQL. This choice simplifies deployment and reduces server-side dependencies for this particular project.
## Key Features
* **Dynamic Content (JSON-based):** All website content is stored in JSON files, allowing for easy updates without modifying code. This approach simplifies deployment and eliminates the need for a database server.
* **Custom Back-end:** A password-protected back-end interface provides full control over website content, including adding, editing, and deleting entries in the JSON files.
* **Key Sections:** The portfolio is divided into clear sections:
* About Me
* Skills
* Projects
* Work Experience & Education
* Contact
* **Dynamic Color Palette:** Users can dynamically change the website's color scheme for a personalized experience.
* **Responsive Design:** The website is designed to be responsive and adapt to different screen sizes.
## Technologies Used
* PHP
* LESS
* JavaScript
* JSON
## Why JSON instead of a Database?
For this project, using JSON files offered several advantages:
* **Simplified Deployment:** No database server setup is required. The website can be deployed on any web server that supports PHP.
* **Reduced Server-Side Dependencies:** This reduces complexity and potential points of failure.
* **Easy Data Management for Small Projects:** For a portfolio website with a relatively small amount of data, JSON provides a simple and efficient way to store and manage content.
* **Version Control Friendly:** JSON files are easily tracked by version control systems like Git.
While a database like MySQL might be more suitable for larger, more complex applications with relational data, JSON provided an ideal solution for the scope of this project.
