Include: a hero section with name and tagline 'Designing experiences that matter', an about section, a projects grid showing 6 project cards with images and titles, a skills section with icons, and a contact section with email and social links. Use a clean, minimal design with a dark navy background and coral accent color."
What You'll Get
GenMB will generate:
- A complete, responsive portfolio
