Tessera Lite
Customizable, high-converting portfolios with zero code
Junior developers are facing a tough job market where applications go unanswered and resumes get scanned in seconds. A portfolio provides the concrete proof that a resume cannot, but building one from scratch wastes weeks of design, frontend work, and hosting setup that should go into studying and interview prep. At the age of AI, sometimes a developer's focus should be on studying and getting himself out there rather than spending hours building a portfolio. Tessera Lite is meant to solve that.
Hello, everyone!
I'm excited to announce Lygon's first project, and it quickstarts a path of learning for myself.
I'm currently working on a project called Tessera Lite, and I wanted to share it here to see what people think.
In my own experience with past portfolios, keeping a custom site looking good also takes constant maintenance. While building one from scratch is a fine learning exercise, maintaining portfolio CSS and Front-End code is rarely the skill that gets a developer hired. Plus, not everyone likes it. Heck, at my last company, some backend developers ran away crying from anything that involved design.
The point of Tessera Lite is to provide a dashboard where a developer can pick a role, choose a handle for a litessera.com subdomain, and set up a profile without writing frontend code or managing hosting. It includes four layouts (Classic, Sidebar, Bento, and Showcase, and soon more to be added), theme customization for colors, fonts, and dark/light modes, project covers, social links, private email controls, and optional GitHub repository syncing. Changes update live in the preview before saving, and it handles basic SEO so Google indexes pages automatically. It costs $10 a month.
What's next: I'm currently working on adding more layouts, custom domain support, and deeper analytics so developers can see when recruiters view their projects.
