Marc ForsBack to the desk

Case study

marcfors.com

Observatory portfolio with first-party vitals, a supply-chain audit on every build, and seven locales. Public source.

Problem

A personal site that recruiters actually scan needed to prove engineering taste without third-party analytics, cookie banners or a fragile CMS.

Approach

The desk is a Next.js App Router portfolio: Fraunces and IBM Plex Mono, CSS tokens, seven URL locales, first-party Core Web Vitals, a dependency audit on every build, and case studies as MDX. The public mailbox is the only contact on the page.

Result

A live observatory desk whose source is public under Fors-Corp, with privacy and security headers treated as product features.
