Development Process:
So, here's the scoop on how this website came to life:
🎨 Custom Design:
I started with a template from uicookies as my canvas and transformed it to align with my vision. The HTML and CSS code underwent significant modifications to match my preferences and what I like.
🚀 Bootstrap and jQuery:
To add specific elements and enhance user interactions, I used Bootstrap and jQuery. This allowed me to create a visually engaging UI/UX.
🐍 Python & Django Backend:
Powered by Django V4.2 and Python, the backend ensures data processing and content administration.
📩 Messages Management:
I used the integrated python library smtplib to automatically send a personalized email to my personal account to notify me about new newsletter subscribers or new messages from the contact me page that was also stored in a mysql database.
🌐 Dependable Hosting:
Originally hosted on Heroku, I later transformed the website into a static version to take advantage of the free web hosting provided by GitHub Pages.
👨🏾💻 IDE of Choice:
Throughout the development process, I used PyCharm for its seamless version control integration and powerful backend support, making it easier to manage and organize the project.

I created this website to showcase my work experience, projects, and skills as an AI engineer. While LinkedIn and other professional networks serve this purpose, I felt a personal website would offer more flexibility and allow me to provide clearer descriptions of my projects. It’s also, in my opinion, a great way to stand out from the crowd and demonstrate that I can build solutions beyond my core field of expertise.
