Show HN: My deliberately boring developer portfolio

After seeing countless developer portfolios with spinning logos, particle effects, and 8-second load times, I went the opposite direction.

Built saurav.dev with Next.js but kept it intentionally simple. 98 Lighthouse score overall, 100/100 for accessibility and SEO, WCAG 2.1 AA + GDPR compliant with proper cookie and privacy controls, sub-2 second loads via static generation.

My thesis: in a world of over-engineered portfolios, being the one that actually works IS the differentiator.

The irony: leveraged a modern framework to build something that feels deliberately minimal.

Curious what HN thinks – am I onto something or missing the point entirely?
