Project Description

The current Portfolio Website in the PyVerse Web_Development section is a great starting point but lacks essential modern features like responsiveness and theme customization. I propose a comprehensive enhancement that significantly improves both user experience and interface quality.

🔧 What I Will Add:

1. Responsive Design:

   • Refactor the layout using CSS Flexbox and Grid.
   • Make all sections (hero, about, projects, etc.) fully responsive on tablets and mobile.
   • Introduce a hamburger menu for navigation on smaller screens.

2. Dark Mode Toggle:

   • Add a dark/light theme switcher using vanilla JavaScript.
   • Use localStorage to preserve the user's theme preference across sessions.
   • Ensure proper color contrast and accessibility in both themes.

3. Minor UI/UX Improvements:

   • Smooth scroll behavior between sections.
   • Add subtle animations for transitions (CSS or JavaScript-based).
   • Improve button and form styling to enhance interactivity.

I have experience building responsive and accessible web interfaces, and I’d love to implement this feature upgrade to improve the quality and maintainability of the project. Looking forward to your approval!

Hi @UTSAVS26
Thanks for responding! 🙌
I'm referring to the Portfolio Website under the Web_Development/Portfolio Website section of this repository:PyVerse/Web_Development/Portfolio Website

I plan to enhance this specific folder by adding:
Responsive design using Flexbox/Grid
A dark mode toggle with theme persistence
Minor UI improvements like smooth scroll and subtle animations
Let me know if you'd like me to make a forked demo or a branch-based enhancement directly. Looking forward to your approval so I can begin working on it!

[UTSAVS26]

In the web development directory there is no portfolio website folder
Can you send a link where it is?
