About this project

Your portfolio is the first thing recruiters and hiring managers will see — and the average tech portfolio in 2026 is shockingly poor. This project builds a portfolio that competes: blog-ready with MDX, fast (sub-1s LCP), accessible, and with at least 3 case studies for shipped projects. Use Astro (the dominant static-site choice in 2026) over Next.js for the speed wins.

Why build this in 2026?

Recruiters skim 200+ portfolios a week. The bar to stand out is now case studies + performance + accessibility, not visual flair alone.

What you'll ship

  • Live portfolio at a custom domain
3+ case studies with screenshots and writeups
Working blog with 1+ published post
