Before I read the comments, I'm gonna add my opinion... first off good job on the portfolio 👍. Who remembers color psychology?
The colors for the websites are not so perfect on the eyes in my opinion, just looking at it doesn't compell me to read. As a front-end jr dev who follows UX principles. The User Experience is very poor.
I dont mean to discourage you and I understand that you have been combered with work so you used a theme instead. Cause ik the headache when it comes to sitting down and planning your work; layouts, design, etc. Dont get me wrong the content is good but choosing colors are very crucial, colors are to attract potential clients and readers. You have to make them feel welcomed and compelled to read. In development it's not about what you like it's about who you are attracting.
I will be adding further theme switches to the website too in the coming future, a light-theme version which is preferable to many folks and easier on eyes is on top of my TO-DOs.
I will try to read a bit more about color psychology. As a UX designer, could you recommend some resources... the few I have attempted at reading left me more confused due to their abstractness than enlightened. Thank you for your inputs! 😁

Well for UX.. my resources are straight forward.
Key Components of UX for me
Observations - Observe how users in real time interact with websites and apps.
Principles - know the Principles, it gets you far if you have little to know knowledge.
Once your aware of the User Experience your good to go.
I'm glad to could help.
As Developers we are a large community and I think its good practice to highlight problems, mistakes among us and encourage.
