My personal webpage

This is the code to run a static react-based application as a personal webpage hosted with GitHub Pages.

Project based on the work of Hashir Shoaeb.

In addition to that I have personally added:

• Google Analytics support
• A working blog page
• The images carousel in the home page
• Several different minor/major addition like SEO support and fixing the redirection.
• Building sitemap correctly (npm run sitemap)
• Email obfuscation

Here I use the master branch as the developement branch, while the deploy branch is gh-pages
