It combines liquid-color animations, sticker-style graphics, and playful page transitions into a fully static site you can deploy without a server, database, or build pipeline. Just drop the files into a GitHub repository, enable Pages, and your portfolio is live.

Get Started in Four Steps

1

Download the theme files

Fork or download the color-melt repository from GitHub. You’ll get all HTML pages, components, assets, and images ready to go.
2

Replace the starter content

Open index.html first and update your name, headline, and introduction. Then work through the pages in pages/ to add your real projects, skills, and contact details.
3

Upload to GitHub

Create a new repository and upload the theme files so that index.html sits at the root — not inside a subfolder.
4

Enable GitHub Pages

Go to Settings → Pages, set the source to main branch at / (root), and save. Your portfolio will be live at https://yourusername.github.io/your-repo-name/.
Color Melt is a static theme — no Node.js, no build step, no paid hosting required. The files work directly in a browser and on GitHub Pages exactly as shipped.
