In today’s digital-first world, having an online identity is no longer optional — it’s essential.
I’m Abhijeet, a Software Architect passionate about AI, scalable system design, and crafting smooth user experiences. 🚀
Recently, I decided to build my own portfolio website from scratch using Angular 18, server-side rendering (SSR), and a heavy focus on SEO and performance.

Why I Chose Angular 18 + SSR
Most portfolio websites use lightweight frameworks like Next.js or simple HTML templates. However, I wanted more control, flexibility, and an environment where I could showcase enterprise-grade frontend skills.
Angular 18 with SSR gave me:
Fast page loads (important for SEO)
Dynamic routing
Pre-rendering critical content
Meta tags and structured data integration for Google
Key Features of My Portfolio
✅ SEO Optimization
I implemented meta titles, descriptions, OG tags, structured schema markup, and automatic sitemap generation.
Thanks to this, my site is already ranking for my name Abhijeet on Google.
✅ Performance Focused
I kept the total build size under 13 MB (even with 50+ components!) and lazy-loaded everything that wasn’t critical.
✅ Analytics & Tracking
Integrated both Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity to monitor user behavior and page performance.
✅ Microservices and Backend
Even though it’s a portfolio, I treated it like a production system — with APIs served via Node.js for the contact forms and custom backend integrations.
Tech Stack I Used
Frontend: Angular 18, Tailwind CSS
Backend: Node.js, Firebase Hosting
SEO Tools: Google Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools
Monitoring: Google Analytics, Clarity
