Share your portfolio - I'll review it in a video

When I started developing websites about ten years ago, one of the hardest things was to get someone else's opinion for my pages.

That's why I'm now trying to help others out by reviewing their portfolios. Just post the link to your page and I'll review it during a live stream in YT.

Some of the things I'll take a look at:

  • site speed
  • SEO
  • design and UX
  • content

//EDIT

The reviews are visible in this Youtube playlist:

Oh and...! If you are interested in coding, growth mindset and are willing to share your experiences, ideas, then please do PM me on Twitter :)!

Hey Timo!

Firstly, thank you for posting!

I created a video where I reviewed your portfolio:
youtu.be/mX_LrXEUecc (you can use the timestamps in the description to get to your review)

The design- wow!
In general, I love the design and structure. It's a good example of what a developer's portfolio should be about.

There are some minor things I'd change, so please do let me know what you think :). That way I can improve my feedback skills and help others.

Hey Keth,

thanks for the review and the feedback! I definitely agree with you and I will see if I can come up with something shorter.

By the way, I would like to get in touch with you because of something else. If you like, please send me an email. :)

Thanks!

Hey Sir!

Thanks for the request!

I created a video where I reviewed your portfolio:
youtu.be/mX_LrXEUecc (you can use the timestamps in the description to get to your review)

I believe it's a nice portfolio - you have your skills and works brought out. Design wise, it's solid. Could maybe create bigger contrast between colors as Adam commented. I would also consider changing the structure of blocks.

Please do let me know your thoughts and if I should improve something in the way I commented the page :)!

You can try adding some border-radius for images.

I didn't go too deep into that page because it's not a portfolio, but I did mention some of the things you can improve :). If you have any thoughts regarding my feedback/would like to discuss it further, do let me know.

Here's is mine sunchayn.github.io/old. It's marked as old and kinda outdated as I'm planning to make a new portfolio. It would be great to see how you would review it. It would be a reference for me to see what's working and what's not working for my next portfolio. Thanks!

Hi Keth, I really enjoyed your review. Your points were a spot on specially for the about section. I'll absolutely consider them for the next sprint. It was fun watching live reaction for the blue screen of death at the end 😁
