ezeed.dev

My personal portfolio website.

Built with Next.js 16, Tailwind CSS v4, shadcn/ui, Magic UI, and next-intl. Content is managed through Upstash Redis.

Getting Started

1. Install dependencies:

   pnpm install

2. Copy .env.example to .env and fill in your Upstash Redis credentials:

   cp .env.example .env

3. Seed the database:

   npx tsx src/scripts/seed.ts

4. Start the dev server:

   pnpm dev

Rendering Strategy

Pages use ISR (Incremental Static Regeneration) with a 30-day cache (revalidate = 2592000). This means:

• Pages are statically cached after the first request.
• The cache automatically expires after 30 days.
• You can manually trigger revalidation at any time (see below).

On-Demand Revalidation

Whenever you update content in Redis, trigger an immediate cache refresh:

curl -X POST https://ezeed.dev/api/revalidate?secret=YOUR_REVALIDATE_SECRET

Setup:

1. Generate a secure secret:

   openssl rand -base64 32

2. Add it to your local .env file:

   REVALIDATE_SECRET=your-generated-secret

3. Add the same value to Vercel under Settings → Environment Variables with the name REVALIDATE_SECRET.

The endpoint returns { "revalidated": true } on success and 401 if the secret is wrong.
