Requires a GitHub account and editing a few files with your own content before deploying.

The README does not state a license, so reuse permissions are unclear without asking the author.

So what is it?

This project is a ready made website template for game developers who want an online portfolio to show off their games, CV, and personal details. Instead of building a portfolio site from nothing, you fork or clone this repository and fill in your own content in a few specific places. Setting it up means placing a PDF of your CV in a particular folder, adding folders of screenshots for each game you want to feature, swapping in your own profile picture and site icon, and then editing one file, src/data.ts, where you fill in your name, role, a short introduction, and links to sites like GitHub, itch.io, and LinkedIn. For each game you list, you describe its name, genre, platform, and game engine, and link to screenshots or a YouTube video, plus optional links to where the game can be downloaded or played. There is also a step for adding a WhatsApp number to a configuration file if you want a contact link that opens a chat. Once everything is filled in, the README explains how to publish the site for free using GitHub Pages, a hosting feature built into GitHub, by turning it on in your repository's settings and running a single deploy command from the terminal. After that, the portfolio becomes reachable at a web address based on your GitHub username and repository name. The repository includes a working example portfolio built from this same template so you can see what the finished result looks like before customizing your own. It has no stars yet, and the README does not mention a license.
