Inspiration
The digital world is filled with similar-looking portfolios. I wanted to create something with depth, motion, and interactivity. This inspired the idea of a fully animated 3D portfolio that feels alive.
What it does
The 3D Portfolio is an interactive personal website featuring animated 3D scenes, smooth camera transitions, realistic lighting, and responsive sections such as About, Projects, and Contact. It helps developers and designers showcase their work in a standout way.
How we built it
We built the project using:
React 19 Three.js React Three Fiber Drei GSAP Tailwind CSS Vite
We combined 3D models, lighting setups, scroll-triggered animations, and reusable components to form a clean and scalable structure.
Challenges we ran into
Optimizing 3D model performance on mobile Syncing GSAP scroll animations with React Three Fiber Balancing lighting and shadow quality without lowering FPS Making the 3D canvas fully responsive Solving browser-specific canvas sizing issues
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Smooth and stable 3D experience on both desktop and mobile Polished camera transitions and animations Clean architecture with reusable components A visually impressive and interactive portfolio
What we learned
Advanced Three.js and rendering optimization Performance tuning for WebGL on multiple devices Integrating GSAP timelines with React Structuring scalable React + R3F applications Techniques for responsive 3D UI
What's next for PORTFOLIO
More interactive 3D sections Light/Dark 3D environment switching Additional customizable 3D models Further mobile performance improvements Converting it into an open-source template
