Frontend Developer Portfolio Guide
Short answer
For a frontend developer, your portfolio site IS a work sample. Here's how to make it count.
What to include
2-3 polished, deployed projects (live links + repos), each with a one-line what + impact. Prefer one impressive, real project over five tutorial clones. Show frontend depth: performance work, accessibility, a component library, or a real API integration.
How to present it
Make the portfolio itself fast, responsive, accessible and clean, it signals taste. Add clear READMEs (what, why, how to run, screenshots). Pin your best repos on GitHub. A short write-up on a hard problem you solved shows communication and depth.
