Portfolica is a premium Astro portfolio template for designers, developers, freelancers and creative professionals who want a clean, modern personal website without building it from scratch. It comes with 13 ready-made pages, six detailed case studies, a built-in EmDash CMS and a calm, distraction-free layout that puts your work first.

The design is minimal and typographic, with plenty of white space, crisp Clash Grotesk headings and a clear structure that guides visitors from your introduction to your projects, your services and a call to action. Replace the sample content with your own work and publish on Cloudflare’s free plan.

Why Choose the Portfolica Astro Portfolio Template?

A portfolio should load fast, read clearly and make it easy for clients to say yes. Portfolica is built with Astro, so pages ship as lightweight HTML with very little JavaScript, which helps with Core Web Vitals and search visibility. The layout is designed for people who have projects, case studies or written work to show, without relying on heavy visuals or complicated effects.

Prefer a no-code builder? Portfolica is also available as a Framer template. This Astro edition gives you the full source code, a built-in CMS and free hosting on Cloudflare.
