Bentofolio is a cutting-edge WordPress theme that capitalizes on the "Bento Box" design trend—a layout style inspired by Apple's promotional materials and Japanese lunch boxes, where content is organized into neat, rounded-corner rectangles of varying sizes.
Updated for 2026, it is the premier choice for designers, developers, and tech-savvy creatives who want a portfolio that feels like a modern iOS app rather than a traditional blog.
The core of Bentofolio is its high-density grid system. This allows you to fit a massive amount of information into a single view without overwhelming the user:
Dynamic Grid Tiles: Mix and match content types—place your "About Me" bio next to a live project preview, a "Tech Stack" icon set, and your current local time.
Interactive GSAP & Three.js: The theme utilizes advanced animation libraries to ensure that tiles react smoothly to mouse hovers and scroll movements, providing a "tactile" digital experience.
Bento Box Navigation: Instead of a traditional top-bar menu, many layouts use one of the grid tiles as a navigation hub, keeping the UI compact and unified.
Live UI Switcher: A native Dark/Light mode toggle that transitions the entire grid's color palette instantly, allowing users to choose their preferred viewing comfort.
Bentofolio is built specifically for "The Brand of You," with modules designed to establish immediate professional credibility:
Tech Stack Showcase: A dedicated area to list your tools (e.g., Figma, React, WordPress) using clean, high-resolution icons.
Project Case Studies: Specialized templates for displaying deep-dive case studies, including goals, challenges, and results, rather than just simple image galleries.
Social Hub Integration: Dedicated tiles that pull in your latest GitHub commits, Dribbble shots, or LinkedIn updates to show you are active in your field.
"Available for Work" Status: A high-visibility, customizable badge that can be toggled on or off to signal your current availability to recruiters or clients.
