This is the source code of my personal website [mirsazzathossain.me](https://mirsazzathossain.me). This academic portfolio website is a comprehensive and visually appealing online presence that showcases my skills, achievements, and experiences in my field of study. I built the website using [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/), a highly popular JavaScript framework that allows for the creation of server-rendered and statically generated web applications. To ensure a modern and professional design, I utilized [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/), a utility-first CSS framework, and was inspired by the [Spotlight](https://spotlight.tailwindui.com/) theme from Tailwind UI. The content of my website is managed with the help of [Contentlayer](https://www.contentlayer.dev/), a platform that simplifies the creation and management of content, and is written in Markdown for efficient organization and formatting. The blog posts on my website feature a commenting system powered by [Giscus](https://giscus.app/), a GitHub-based discussion platform, allowing for interactive communication and feedback from my audience. Additionally, I integrated the [Spotify](https://www.spotify.com/) Web API to showcase my recently played songs on the website and used icons from [Heroicons](https://heroicons.com/) to enhance the visual appeal of my website. My website is hosted on [Vercel](https://vercel.com/), a reliable cloud platform for hosting static sites and serverless functions, ensuring smooth and fast access for all users. Overall, I believe my academic portfolio website demonstrates my dedication to staying up-to-date with modern technologies and presents a dynamic and visually striking online presence.

In short, the tech stack of the website is as follows:

- Framework: [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/)
- Styling: [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/)
- Icons: [Heroicons](https://heroicons.com/)
- Content: [Markdown](https://www.markdownguide.org/)
- Content Management: [Contentlayer](https://www.contentlayer.dev/)
- Deployment: [Vercel](https://vercel.com/)
- Comments: [giscus](https://giscus.app/)
