This project is a static site generator template designed for academics to build and maintain professional portfolios. It transforms markdown files and structured data into a cohesive website, allowing scholars to document their research publications, teaching experience, and speaking history without the need for a database.
The platform is distinguished by its specialized tools for scholarly dissemination, including the ability to showcase research output with metadata and abstracts, and to catalog professional talks through interactive geographic visualizations. It supports the presentation of complex technical information by rendering mathematical equations and text-based diagrams directly within the browser.
Beyond its core academic focus, the system provides comprehensive content management features such as chronological blog archiving, collapsible sections, and interactive data visualizations. Users can automate the creation of portfolio entries by converting structured spreadsheet or CSV files into formatted markdown, while centralized configuration files manage site-wide navigation and layout visibility.
