Overview

What we set out to ship.

A personal portfolio WordPress theme built end-to-end with AI assistance in Cursor: fully Elementor-editable sections, responsive layouts, and a performance-first shell that scores 90+ on PageSpeed Insights for both mobile and desktop.

03

Problem

The friction we removed.

We needed a personal portfolio that looked custom and premium, stayed fully editable in Elementor as a real theme, and still hit modern Core Web Vitals — without shipping a bloated page-builder site.

04

Approach

How the studio solved it.

We designed and engineered the site as a complete WordPress theme with Cursor: Elementor-driven sections for intro, projects, experience, stack, contact, and reviews; tight CSS/JS; and performance work aimed at 90+ PageSpeed on mobile and desktop while keeping every block client-editable.
