Altair: An Astro Portfolio Theme for Developers and Designers

If you build for the web, your portfolio is part of your work. A hiring manager won’t only read what it says. They’ll notice how it feels.

Altair is a single-page Astro theme for developers and designers who want a portfolio that’s calm, personal and fast.

A one-page developer portfolio

Altair puts your whole story in one scroll:

• Hero: your availability, live local time and a hand-drawn underline on your headline
• Selected work: your projects, each with a short story
• About and toolbox: who you are and what you work with
• Services and experience: what you offer and where you’ve been
• Testimonials and contact: kind words and an easy way to reach you

A blog when you need one

Altair also includes a blog with RSS and code highlighting for both light and dark modes, so your best writing can sit beside your best work.

An Astro portfolio theme built for speed

The live demo scores 100 for Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices and SEO on mobile PageSpeed. It loads one font file and under 2 KB of JavaScript, and its scroll reveals and scribbled underlines are done with CSS.

Yours in minutes

Your content lives in Markdown and YAML, and it’s checked when you build, so a missing field can’t slip through. One accent colour restyles everything. The documentation covers the rest.
