TBH it's not. If I was looking at the site after receiving an application, I would be less likely to proceed further. Using the right tool for the right job is important

Jon, though I agree that I do have tons of tooling, I feel like every tool has a specific purpose. For example, I used Next.js because I wanted a Static Site Generator, Tailwind because it's a CSS Framework that allowed me to build the site within a week, and TypeScript for type checking. I used a Markdown parser to parse my blog markdowns.

Besides Tailwind, I think most of the tooling was necessary. I'd love to know your thoughts.
