  fontFamily: 'Inter',
  useMaterial3: true,
),

3. Add Your Projects

Update the projects list in projects_section.dart:

final List<Map<String, dynamic>> projects = [
  {
    'title': 'Your Project Name',
    'description': 'Project description...',
    'technologies': ['Flutter', 'Firebase', '...'],
    'github': 'https://github.com/yourusername/project',
    'demo': 'https://demo.yourproject.com',
    'image': 'assets/images/project1.jpg',
  },
  // Add more projects...
];

4. Add Your Social Links

Update social links in multiple sections:

• Hero section social icons
• Contact section contact info
• Footer social links

5. Replace Placeholder Images

Add your images to assets/images/ and update image paths:

• Profile photo in hero_section.dart and about_section.dart
• Project images in projects_section.dart

🌐 Deployment

Option 1: Firebase Hosting (Recommended)

# Install Firebase CLI
npm install -g firebase-tools

# Login to Firebase
firebase login

# Initialize Firebase
firebase init hosting

# Deploy to Firebase
firebase deploy --only hosting

Option 2: GitHub Pages

1. Enable GitHub Pages in repository settings
2. Set source to gh-pages branch
3. Use GitHub Actions to auto-deploy

Option 3: Netlify

1. Drag and drop /build/web folder to Netlify
2. Or connect your GitHub repository
3. Set build command: flutter build web
4. Set publish directory: build/web

Option 4: Vercel

1. Import your Git repository
2. Set framework preset to "Other"
3. Set build command: flutter build web
4. Set output directory: build/web

📱 Responsive Design

The portfolio automatically adapts to different screen sizes:

• Mobile: < 768px
• Tablet: 768px - 1199px
• Desktop: ≥ 1200px

Breakpoints are handled by flutter_screenutil and custom responsive utilities.

🔧 Development Scripts

Create a run.sh file for quick development:

#!/bin/bash
flutter clean
flutter pub get
flutter run -d chrome

Or for Windows (run.bat):

@echo off
flutter clean
flutter pub get
flutter run -d chrome

🎯 SEO Optimization

To improve SEO for your portfolio:

1. Update meta tags in web/index.html
2. Add Open Graph tags for social sharing
3. Create a sitemap.xml
4. Add alt text to all images
5. Use semantic HTML structure (Flutter web generates this)

🚦 Performance Tips

1. Image Optimization

   • Compress all images
   • Use WebP format
   • Implement lazy loading

2. Code Splitting

   • Consider deferred loading for heavy sections
   • Use FutureBuilder for async content

3. Build Optimization

   • Use --release flag for production builds
   • Enable tree-shaking with --tree-shake-icons

🐛 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. Browser not detected

   flutter run -d web-server
   # Then manually open http://localhost:8080

2. CORS issues during development

   • Run a local server: python -m http.server 8080 in build/web
   • Or use Chrome with disabled security: chrome --disable-web-security

3. Responsive issues

   • Check flutter_screenutil initialization
   • Verify breakpoints in responsive utilities

4. Build errors

   flutter clean
   flutter pub get
   flutter build web --release
