This is awesome. Very creative and responsive. VERY impressive. The only apparent problem is that in the "postcards" the text which describes the beach is too close to the title. But it's very simple to fix, and not even serious. In any case, I wish you good luck in the competition!

oh nvm, It only happens when the screen is too small, but it's still readable so it's not a problem. excuse me.

Thanks for pointing out! The overall design could have been a lot more responsive. I'll try making things more responsive next time :')

Oh don't worry! It's already very responsive :)
Especially for something as complex as this, bro there are images, drawing, and a lot of stuff!
The arrows make it easy to use on phone, and for computer, it's good to use right and left key. I love this feature!
Well keep up this work man, it's very helpful and useful for community!

Btw, I don't know if you want, but adding a different highlight color would definately be fun!

Just added it. I'm not sure about if the colors look good, but I loved adding the little detail into the product! Thanks for the idea! 😊

Well-tried for the first time! I won't be critical about everything, yet I'll point out a few things you should improve upon!

  1. Try to keep all the text's grammar and spelling correct. (Spelling and grammar errors make it look unprofessional). For, e.g., the spelling of "developer" on the landing page, capitalisation and punctuation in paragraphs.
  2. The different columns in your about section should not be scrollable, rather they should fit all the content they have. I would about suggest you to point out your skills in lesser words, as no one would invest much time in reading long paragraphs.
  3. You should try to remove pointer cursor from places that don't open a link. For eg. The box in the landing page that tells you are 12y/o is set to cursor Pointer, but doesn't seem to open a link or cause any side effects.
  4. (This suggestion is optional, and is very much towards creative freedom) You could try to keep the nav bar sticky on the top so that I can click on any option while viewing different sections in your portfolio.

It's a pretty cool website for a young developer like you! You could try reading about web layouts to add a little more consistency among different sections on the site. But at the same time, you can't move mountains in one go, so I would suggest you keep building more things and learn things step by step.

Wow. Thank you so much! All your advice is professional, simple, and clear. I have absolutely nothing to complain about, you would make an excellent teacher! I was worried I'd seem like a stalker, just looking for advice, but I'm glad to see that's not what you thought. I really appreciate your advice, so thank you.
(also, I'm really sorry for flexing so much in the site, because my brother helped me a lot so my age doesn't mean much, I think I'll remove it).
Possibly, for further feedback, we could contact each other on discord.
Good day!
