A Step-by-Step Guide

I was asked how I built my personal page.

So I thought I'd share a simple way to go from a one-pager to a live personal website, plus an AI chatbot to spice things up.

Useful for professionals, freelancers, students, SMBs, and anyone curious.

🛠 What I used:

• Cursor (GPT 5.3 Codex High)
• Optional Claude (for HTML artifact/design reference)
• LinkedIn PDF export (or any outline of the content)
• Netlify (or Vercel) for deployment

🚀 The Website

1. Start with the data

For this example, I downloaded my LinkedIn as a PDF. You can also grab any personal page or one-pager as a reference. That's the content source.

2. Yolo/Vibe code in Cursor

Feed the PDF + the prompt → get a local website.

Settings tip to go free on the project: In Cursor, turn on "Run Everything (Unsandboxed)" for full trust mode (if you trust it). This is the fastest path.

Prompt: Build me a professional website running locally. My linkedin profile is in linkedin.pdf. Make the website stunning: enterprise meets edgy. It should include about me, career journey, links to a portfolio (for future). Iterate to make it as slick and professional as possible. Use NextJS.
