ChangelogWhat's new and upcoming

My annual update released with several new features, including live link previews, a new article layout and design, and revamped open graph system for generating sharing images!

You can now remove a note you left on the Community Wall!

Inspired by Tailwind's code blocks from their doc site, this revamped version includes a new design and improves readability by reducing the font size and line-height.

Opted to use carefully chosen font-families for headings and body text. Headings now use Manrope and body text has Inter applied! I also decreased the font size and line height of the text throughout the site to provide an easier reading experience.

Want a way to interact with me or other visitors? Now you can with the introduction of the Community Wall! Leave me a note, comment or idea and see other notes from the community!

When viewing the blog page, tags now snap to the start of the list when you scroll, providing a much improved experience when browsing topics. The tag list is also topped with an icon and descriptive text to better indicate the expected behavior.

Added an archives route that will redirect visitors to past versions of my blogfolio! Try navigating to ‘braydoncoyer.dev/archives/v1’

Utilizing the powerful preview mode API that Next.js provides, I can now see draft articles live on my site without affecting other visitors.

Updated my site’s favicon. The fresh design includes a lovely squircle!

Revised mobile menu with a new design that is less cumbersome, more user-friendly and contains a blurred background for visual distinction!

Keep up to date with what’s new by subscribing to my RSS feed!

I finally hit the publish button! Moving from Gatsby to Next.js, my new blogfolio has a bunch of cool new features! Read the blog post to learn more!

Tailwind v3 is out and the upgrade was extremely smooth! Version 3 brings a lot of great new features and improvements - some of which are found here on my blogfolio!

Added page transitions and parallax scrolling animations with Framer Motion

Using the power of Cloudinary, my blog automatically pulls the article banner and title and crafts a dynamic banner to use when articles are shared to social media!

Selected a few projects to highlight on my blog. Added some lovely device screenshots, too!

Added some subtle animation to the landing page of my portfolio! The blurred gradients traverse the page and add a bit of eye candy to the finish of the site.

I had a Changelog on my old portfolio, but this revamped version grabs its data from Notion!

Spent the afternoon tidying up the About page.

I updated the Toolbox page to source its data from Notion. Making changes to this page is now trivial and no longer requires me to manually add the change to my repo!

I decided to refactor the single-column blog layout and upgrade to a right-side sticky sidebar. On desktop devices, this means that article reactions and social sharing options are always accessible.
