After months of procrastination, I've built my first Portfolio ever!

I would love to receive feedback on my latest and proudest work. it’s my own portfolio, showcasing my designs.

The menu doesn’t close automatically when I navigate to some other page, which is quite annoying. Could you fix that please? Also, could you share your repo? I’m not strong at frontend design, and while I have several projects, I don’t have a portfolio. I created one previously, but I cringe at its code.

Thank you for catching that bug; it’s easy to overlook. I’m cleaning up my code mess before making it public, haha.

No problem! What tech stack did you use?

I used Next.js with a bit of shadcn.

@Pippin
Oh, that’s easier to work with. Thanks for your hard work, man. Cheers!

Nice job on the clean design!

The mobile version’s project buttons look bad.

Everything else looks harmonious, but the button placement feels off. It could be helpful to create a slider for three featured works or highlight them in a separate block with a button to view all. A section with a title, a slider of works, and this button at the bottom would tie it all together.

@Zayden
I see what you mean! Now that you mention it, it’s definitely triggering my OCD, haha. I’m making a to-do list of all the feedback from this thread; it helps a lot!

I’d remove the requirement for project details to only show on hover. Also, consider adding timelines or a rough estimate of how much time was spent on projects, including whether they are side projects or professional work.

The design looks nice, but not being able to see project details without hovering feels inconvenient on mobile.

You can click on a project to see details, along with a carousel of screenshots. Should I consider making each project display details on click, alongside a button that redirects to the project page?
