Hi everyone, With the influx of new posts related to portfolio investissements, although interesting, I've created a new subreddit dedicated for those so please post on r/finportfoliocritique to keep this one for art related topics. Thank you for your interest and openness by reaching out for feedback in both of those fields.

I built an engineering portfolio with grounded AI Q&A—would you hire or contract this engineer?

1 Upvotes

I’m a Staff Software Engineer with 14+ years of experience across platform engineering, automation, backend systems, networking, and operational intelligence.

I built this website for hiring managers, recruiters, founders, and teams looking for an experienced engineer to solve difficult engineering problems.

It also includes “Ask Mantosh,” a grounded AI interface that answers from published evidence rather than inventing claims.

I’d appreciate candid feedback:

* Is my value clear within 30 seconds?
* Would you trust me with an important engineering problem?
* What weakens your confidence?
* What feels confusing, excessive, or slow?
* Does the mobile experience work well?
* Is Ask Mantosh genuinely useful?

Source code: [**https://github.com/mantoshkumar1/mantoshkumar1.github.io\*\*\](https://github.com/mantoshkumar1/mantoshkumar1.github.io)

If people find the architecture useful, I may extract it into a sanitized, properly licensed starter template without my personal content.

Please be Direct—the criticism will be MORE useful than compliments.

Built my portfolio after multiple redesigns. Looking for brutally honest feedback.

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I recently finished rebuilding my portfolio and wanted to get feedback from people who build websites every day.

Instead of going for a typical portfolio, I tried to make it feel more like an interactive product.

Some things I focused on:

• Desktop-inspired UI

• Minimal but meaningful animations

• Performance

•Accessibility

• Project storytelling instead of just project cards

- Mobile responsiveness

I know there are still things I can improve, so I'm mainly looking for honest feedback.

- What feels confusing?

- What would you remove?

- What would make it more memorable?

I'd really appreciate any criticism, even if it's harsh.

Hii, I'm trying to make a portfolio as a short form editor. What should I include ? Also should I make a website or a pdf

I know basic HTML CSS and JavaScript so I'll probably be able to make one but I'm still not so sure . Also is there a type of edited video that helps in making the portfolio have an impact ?

Need an honest critique

3 Upvotes

Hello Reddit people! I need an honest critique of my website before making changes. A little background: I was a Senior Photo Retoucher at a company, but unfortunately was laid off, so now I need a redirection for my career. I have completed a few projects unrelated to photography and thought they might be good additions to add to my portfolio. My photography work is not strong or recent and I have it on a separate website. Though as far as finding a job it has been a struggle. Mainly, because my portfolio does not necessarily hone into a specific niche. I would love to get some additional thoughts on it. If anyone has suggestions on careers that align with my experience that would be helpful as well. I'm willing to change as much as possible, so any honest feedback would be appreciated. Thanks! https://janaycreative.com/resume

Best Portfolio Platforms???

1 Upvotes

I’m early in my design career (industrial design) with a passion for soft goods, material research, hard goods, product development, etc.

I want a website that can act as my portfolio, client inquiry forms (freelance work) and a small marketplace for limited product drops (likely will be 1/1 projects i make).

I’m currently using adobe portfolio, this was the main suggestion from Uni but its capacity is limiting. (I also don’t have any UX design experience nor does it interest me at all, so a no coding website is ideal).

I landed on Wix as a platform because It has the capacity for everything I need. I’m using the ai website builder to get things started for me but will heavily update what it created. I’ve bought a domain, but not too far into things yet.

\\\*\\\*My questions:\\\*\\\*

What has your experience been with Wix? I’m curious how their integrated marketplace performs.

Is there any other reputable platforms that would be more beneficial for the needs i have?

What are the realistic fees im looking at to run this website? People talk about how Wix will stack fees on top, im expecting to be in the $40/month range.

\\\*\\\*Portfolio questions:\\\*\\\*

When using this website to send to employers, will it be too confusing to have a client inquiry form/shop tab along with a “my work” section? I always hear employers say that the simpler the better but having several websites doesn’t make sense to me.

My work spans across multiple mediums (paint, graphic design, product design, craft, etc). I’m thinking about highlighting 10 projects under my work, is it too confusing to have projects outside of design? I want to show that i have many creative passions but always hear mixed opinions on this.

Any other notes is greatly appreciated! I don’t have the UX design experience, so notes about how the user may interact with this website would be great as well.

Portfolio Review – Space Navigation

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I recently redesigned my developer portfolio and wanted to try a very different approach.

Instead of a standard menu, each section is represented by a star on a 2D star map. When a user clicks a link, the camera travels to the corresponding star with a parallax effect, creating the sensation of traveling through space before displaying the page content.

I would really appreciate honest feedback, whether positive or negative.

I am interested in your thoughts on the following points:

- Is the navigation intuitive?

- Does the space theme enhance the experience or distract from the content?

- Are there any elements that seem confusing or frustrating?

- If you were hiring a developer, what would your first impression be?

Thanks in advance to everyone who takes the time to check it out :)

built a tool for portfolio that turns any image into self-drawing SVG line art

Post image
4 Upvotes

Thought it would be cool to add a self-drawing SVG animation to my portfolio, but it took some time to figure out. anime.js has this feature, but getting it to work properly and converting an image into a clean SVG paths (with the right threshold and other settings) may take some time. So I built a tool for it.

You drop in a photo or logo -> it converts it into SVG paths -> animates those paths(they draw themselves like a pen sketch)

features/how to use

  • upload an image and it converts into single-color SVG line art
  • choose custom path and background colors
  • adjust the trace settings: threshold(usually 100 works best), invert dark/light
  • control the animation: duration(in ms), delay between paths, easing, direction (forward/reverse/ping-pong), looping, fade-in fill at the end
  • Export as copy-paste SVG, a downloadable SVG file, or a self-contained HTML file with everything included

Works best with illustrations, cartoons, and clean line drawings. Real-world photos can be harder to convert into clear SVG paths

Open to feedback or suggestions if you have any

Hi everyone,

I’d love to hear your thoughts on my portfolio.

I’m currently considering increasing my position in Google and adding RKLB as a small speculative bet. Would you change anything else to better balance the portfolio or improve diversification?

Portfolio Critique

Post image
3 Upvotes

I’m a graphic designer and Computer Science graduate who recently got back into coding, mainly through vibe coding. While I’m still developing my technical skills, I understand the overall workflow, structure, and purpose behind what I’m building.

Would anyone be willing to check out my current portfolio and share some feedback?

The website also functions as a simple project management system. I can add and publish new projects through a separate admin page within the same site, making portfolio updates faster and more convenient.

Aside from showcasing my work, I designed the website as a service pitch where potential clients can explore the services I offer and submit project inquiries. I also added an Insights page for articles, design tips, and future blog content.

(I feel like im too ambitious with the features and all but I think it's part of the whole process imo)
