polymathic
polymathic is a Zola portfolio theme.
I made it for my own portfolio. The theme is called polymathic, inspired by individuals with a wide range of talents. The theme focuses on rich and consistent navigation experience, exposing the variety of topics to chose from, yet allowing the user to focus on a single thread of your story once they've made a choice.
