As developers and designers, we need ways to showcase our skills to potential employers. There's no better way of doing this than a dedicated portfolio page. It gives you full control of how you'd like to present yourself.
In this course, the brilliant teacher Kevin Powell will take you through every single step of building a neat-looking portfolio website. You'll also learn to customize it to suit your personal style. Towards the end of the course, Kevin shows you how to deploy the site to DigitalOcean, so that you will end up with a live website upon completing the course!
The site is built without using any web frameworks, so the only prerequisites for this course are basic HTML and CSS skills.
