Discussion on: Are portfolios still necessary as a front end developer?

I'm a frontend developer (strictly developer) and I do have a portfolio website. I find it easier both for me and for the potential employer to check the website instead of CV. For me, it's easier to add more info about projects I've been working with and I'm not limited to 3-5 lines for each one (otherwise CV would take several pages). For employer it would also be easier to understand what I've been doing in a "big picture" . This case might not work all the time and this is exactly the reason why there should be a link to download your CV.

My first reflex was to click on your profile to check it out. Don't forget to add it to your DEV profile if you'd like ! 😄

This is easier & conveys much more than a resume.
