Daniel's Portfolio Theme

This portfolio is optimized for researchers and those who strive for a minimal, file-based content management. The complete site's content is based on a json/yaml file per section (e.g., contact.json, projects.json, publications.json, talks.json, and teaching.json) as well as the pages _config.yml information.

Examples

• Carolin Fiedler
• Daniel Limberger (my personal website)
• Willy Scheibel
• Amir Semmo
• Maximilian Söchting
• Tim Cech

Features

• responsive single-page using Bootstrap 4
• multi-language support
• sections for publications, projects, talks/keynotes, teaching, contact, and more
• section contents loaded from json/yaml data-files (_data)
• unique, distinguishable layouts per section
• dynamic integration of Flickr photo sets (with basic caching)
• php and javascript free contact form using Formspree
• supports deployment using GitHub Pages
• minimizes html and css (currently using compress layout method)
• easy BibTeX provisioning (show, select, and copy to clipboard, or download)
• valid html5 output (nearly-valid css, due to some issues in bootstrap)
• responsive navigation (with scrollspy) comprising a top-page link (author or icon), section links (nav-links or dropdown-items), and a language toggle for all used languages
• support for vCard via file and QR Code
• basic Travis CI integration
