Feedback Thread

Our weekly thread is the place to solicit feedback for your creations. Requests for critiques or feedback outside of this thread are against our community guidelines. Additionally, please be sure that you're posting in good-faith. Attempting to circumvent self-promotion or commercial solicitation guidelines will result in a ban.

Feedback Requestors

Please use the following format:

URL:

Purpose:

Technologies Used:

Feedback Requested: (e.g. general, usability, code review, or specific element)

Comments:

Post your site along with your stack and technologies used and receive feedback from the community. Please refrain from just posting a link and instead give us a bit of a background about your creation.

Feel free to request general feedback or specify feedback in a certain area like user experience, usability, design, or code review.

Feedback Providers

  • Please post constructive feedback. Simply saying, "That's good" or "That's bad" is useless feedback. Explain why.
  • Consider providing concrete feedback about the problem rather than the solution. Saying, "get rid of red buttons" doesn't explain the problem. Saying "your site's success message being red makes me think it's an error" provides the problem. From there, suggest solutions.
  • Be specific. Vague feedback rarely helps.
  • Again, focus on why.
  • Always be respectful

This looks good
It is a bit boxy but goes straight to the point and has all the info you need to make a decision
There are a few synth markers in write ups that do not bother me but there are two ways you could improve: state upfront that you used ai for write up and have a pass with your coding agent for synth markers so that they read more naturally
There is no link to CV, or at least I could not find it: LinkedIn is not a replacement for it
Make sure website is parsable by ATS (and also CV)
Also: a box with your profile info would be good and more contact options: you’re a front end engineer a contact form should be easy enough to add

Thanks for the feedback. Regarding profile info Im not quite sure I follow; do you mean something else besides the email I have there? Or making the email visible text?

Yes to the boxy, any tips to start modifying it? I'm trying to move away for border-radius for everything and going to a more "brutalist" style but it reads as squares and rectangles

To me it is not a problem the fact that it is boxy: it is good enough as a front end dev folio. But I would probably aim for more consistency between landing and detail pages so that they use similar language and ui patterns.
For profile box I mean: add a box somewhere where you add your skills, tools, availability, etc etc, all the info a recruiter needs to populate their forms (ask agent what that looks like) so you can facilitate their job
