the design portfolio of kian lavi

every year, us designers get the itch to redo our portfolio. this is my simplified attempt at a living portfolio. i've gone from custom everything, to this simple homepage i made using jekyll, sass, html, and yaml to house links to case studies on medium. everything get's published directly to kian.design

for future me: how to install

1. clone this repo and make sure you have xcode command line tools, brew, and ruby installed
2. install jekyll: sudo gem install jekyll; bundle install
3. you might need to run bundle once, but then run the server using bundle exec jekyll serve
