Recreating my Portfolio in Next.js
Medea - Feb 23 '23 - - Dev Community
I have recently started learning Next.js/React and I wanted to compare the speeds of Next.js and the framework I used to use previously: Flask (a Python framework).
So I decided to recreate my portfolio in Next.js (the portfolio was initially created in Flask). This way I would be able to easily see the difference in load times between Next.js and Flask.
Over the last 4 days, I properly learnt how to do:
- Components in React
- Loops in React (this took a while!)
- Assets in Next.js
- How to put a Next.js website together
This is the Next.js Portfolio and this is the Flask Portfolio.
See the difference in load times!
If you want to see the source code for either portfolios, here they are.

Thanks for reading, and thanks for supporting me on my Next.js journey!
