Academic Portfolio Website

Custom academic portfolio website forked from manuarora700/simple-developer-portfolio-website because I wanted to learn how to use React and wanted to build in as much automation as I could. If you end up using this repo as a template, please do credit me as I've put in a lot of effort to making this website as low maintenance as I can. Thank you!

Features

Below are features from the original repo:

• Responsive layout, works well on both Mobile and Desktop.
• Dark mode support. Click buttons to toggle dark mode and light mode.
• Clear React components and tailwind styling.

Below are the features that I added:

• Publication support.
  • Workflow for automatically scraping Semantic Scholar for publications every 8 months.
  • Research tab for displaying publications with support for
    • Teaser
    • Abstract
    • Bibtex copying
    • Project website
    • GitHub link
• Simple website editing support. Only have to edit 3 files:
  • constants/data.json: This is where you will have to edit the most as it contains all of the important data.
  • constants/data.js: Edit this to change your description on the homepage. Also adds encodedEmail.
  • public/publications.bib: This is autogenerated from utils/update_publications.js. Feel free to edit this as you want and/or additional fields of teaser, project, and github. This is used to generate the publications that are displayed.

This repo should be functionally complete by now, but if there are any bugs, feel free to open an issue and I'll try my best to fix it. Also if there are any feature requests, also feel free to open an issue and I will try and implement a feature if I see it being valuable. That being said, you can also submit a pull request if you implemented a feature that you believe would be valuable to others and I'll review it as soon as I can.
