Every creator needs a portfolio, but let's be honest: the traditional options are a trap. You're either paying endless subscription fees for a 'pro' plan, or you get a 'free' site that features a giant, ugly footer advertising *their* platform on *your* work. I was tired of it. So, I built my own.

This is a simple, powerful, and *free* portfolio builder I created for myself and other creators. The whole point is to give you back control. You can easily add and edit content, customize the look, and deploy it yourself. Hook it up to your own custom domain or use a clean, recognizable Firebase hosting URL. The best part? No ads. No subscriptions. Your portfolio belongs to *you*.

This project was a deep dive into building a full-stack content management system from the ground up, designed to be easily maintained, updated, and deployed by anyone—not just developers. It’s a testament to the idea that creators should be able to own their online presence, free from digital landlords.
