World 12: Career Quest

Portfolio ideas

You will learn: which small projects show your skills best.

The problem

A job post says: “Link three projects you built.” Your repos are all tutorial copies. What will a reviewer look for?

Watch

Tap each point on the timeline.

A great portfolio is a few small, finished projects. Each one tells a short story. Tap through one project’s life.

Try it

Pick projects that match the job you want. Sort each idea by the skill it shows.

Drag a card into a box. Or tap the card, then tap the box.

        Check

        Good project or not yet? Judge each idea.

        Swipe right for good, left for needs work. Or use the buttons.

        A budget tracker you use every week

        Check

        A reviewer opens your best repo. They have one minute. What should they see first?

        You did it!

        You can now plan small projects that show your real skills.

        Go deeper (optional)

        Stuck for ideas? Rebuild a tool you use, but smaller. Then add one feature it lacks. GitHub Pages can host a simple demo site (World 9). Helping an open-source project counts too. The next lesson shows you how.
