# Luxury Portfolio V0 Template: Cinematic Framer Motion for Creative Professionals - Tool: V0 Templates - Last updated: July 2026 ## TL;DR The Luxury Portfolio template is a high-end Next.js 14 portfolio with edge-to-edge visuals, a Framer Motion CursorFollower, and full-bleed ProjectShowcase panels. Built for designers, photographers, and creative directors who need cinematic transitions and an editorial feel. The CursorFollower SSR gotcha and the password-protected work section make this page the most detailed guide available. ## Frequently asked questions ### Is this luxury portfolio template free to use? Yes, it's free to fork on v0.dev. The template itself has no cost. V0's free tier provides enough credits to personalize it. Vercel hosting is free for personal projects, and a custom domain is the only optional paid component. ### Can I use this template commercially — for example to attract paying design clients? Yes. V0 community templates are available for commercial use with no attribution required. You own the forked code and can build any commercial product on top of it, including using it as a client-attracting portfolio. ### Why does my fork crash in preview with a 'window is not defined' error? The CursorFollower component uses window.addEventListener in its component body, which crashes during Next.js server-side rendering. Add 'use client' to CursorFollower.tsx and move the event listener into a useEffect hook. The fix prompt in the gotchas section above is copy-paste ready. ### The CursorFollower doesn't appear in the V0 preview. Is it broken? No — the cursor effect is likely blocked by the V0 preview iframe or isn't triggering on touch devices. Deploy to production via Share → Publish → Publish to Production and test on a desktop browser with a real mouse. It will work on the live URL. ### How do I add my own project images to ProjectShowcase? Paste your image URLs and project details into the V0 chat and ask it to update ProjectShowcase. Use the 'Replace placeholder projects' prompt from the prompt pack above. Images should be hosted on a CDN (Supabase Storage, Cloudflare Images, etc.) — local file paths won't work. ### Will the animations perform well on mobile? The core layout is responsive. The CursorFollower won't appear on touch devices (correct behavior — there's no cursor). Parallax effects on ProjectShowcase may be reduced on some mobile browsers. The ContactCTA and AboutSection render correctly on all screen sizes. ### Can RapidDev customize this luxury portfolio for a client project? Yes. RapidDev regularly takes luxury V0 portfolio prototypes and extends them with lead capture forms, Supabase storage, Resend email notifications, and Core Web Vitals optimization for client delivery. --- Source: https://www.rapidevelopers.com/v0-template/luxury-portfolio © RapidDev — https://www.rapidevelopers.com/v0-template/luxury-portfolio
