Restored static wellness website inspired by a family-owned acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine clinic originally developed as a full-stack bootcamp project.
Natural Path is a portfolio restoration project preserving the visual direction, wellness concepts, and user experience goals of the original Yan Bian Acumedic Clinic website.
The original project was built using a modern full-stack architecture including React, GraphQL, Apollo Server, MongoDB Atlas, and Node.js. This restored version has been simplified into a lightweight static website for long-term maintainability, GitHub Pages deployment, and portfolio preservation.
