Easy Portfolios

One of the main problems faced by a lot of people is having a maintained website. Updating personal websites take a lot of time and efforts in terms of making changes, redeployment and real time updates.

I solved this issue by creating a react app that reads data from Firestore. This way the website can read data from a database and present dynamic data effectively. I built a mobile app companion for the website using which I can perform Create Update and Delete operations for the items on the website. So I can add/update/reorder/delete projects, update my CV/photograph, update social media details and website content all from a mobile app.

This gives me flexibility over not having to redeploy the website and I can maintain and make changes on the go from my mobile app.

All of this required me to have a good setup, but a lot of people might not have access to a good setup. Using GitHub Actions, we can build a the application and make it available via GitHub releases to download the application, and the SHA key zip details that we would require. We can also deploy the web app using GitHub actions and setup easy documentations for them to follow in the Firebase console UI.

This way, people who are not Technically inclined would be able to maintain their websites.
