DevScholar Theme

An Astro theme for developer-scholars who need publications, teaching notes, projects, and writing in one calm system.

DevScholar focuses on clarity, speed, and clean typography. It treats an academic website as a working system rather than a brochure: publications need citation actions, teaching needs navigable chapters, and software work needs enough context to judge usefulness.

Problem

Academic portfolio themes often treat publications, teaching, writing, and software as separate brochure sections. That makes the site harder to maintain and less useful for repeated academic work.

Implementation

DevScholar uses Astro content collections, focused components, and restrained UI patterns so scholarly content can stay structured while still feeling fast and usable.

What it does

  • Publication cards support abstract and citation expansion without leaving the list.
  • Teaching chapters support outline navigation and code-focused reading.
  • Search spans writing, publications, projects, teaching, and quotes.
