Dark Golden: A Modern, Customizable Engineer's Portfolio Built with SvelteKit & TailwindCSS

Dark Golden Portfolio is a sleek, performance-focused portfolio template designed for engineers, developers, and technical professionals. Built with SvelteKit for server-side rendering (SSR) and seamless routing, TailwindCSS for utility-first styling, and a dark/gold theme for a sophisticated aesthetic, this template offers a fully dynamic and customizable experience through a single JSON configuration file. Below’s a technical deep dive:

### Tech Stack & Architecture

Core Framework:
- SvelteKit: Leverages Svelte’s compiler-driven reactivity for blazing-fast performance and SvelteKit’s file-based routing, SSR/SSG capabilities, and API endpoints.
- TailwindCSS: Utilizes Tailwind’s JIT compiler for optimized CSS, with custom themes for dark mode and golden accent colors (`#FFD700` variants).
Build Tools:
- Vite-powered bundling for rapid development and production builds.
- PostCSS integration for autoprefixing and minification.

### Customization via JSON
example JSON: ``` { "name": "Sk Shahriar Ahmed Raka", "profile_image": "/images/user_image.png", "favicon_image": "/favicon.svg", "profile_tags": ["Golang Developer", "Full-Stack Software Engineer"], "email": "skshahriarahmedraka@gmail.com", "phone": "+8801830000000", "address": "Dhaka, Bangladesh", "address_google_map": "https://www.google.com/maps/place/Dhaka/@23.7806365,90.4193257,12z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x3755b8b087026b81:0x8fa563bbdd5904c2!8m2!3d23.810332!4d90.4125181", "social": { "github": "https://github.com/skshahriarahmedraka", "linkedin": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/shahriarraka", "twitter": "https://twitter.com/shahriarraka7", ... }, ... ... ... } ```
