I was thrilled to create my own portfolio website. It was both challenging and fun. Initially, I thought it wouldn’t take long to complete since I planned to keep it simple. However, as I delved deeper, I realized there was so much more to include, and the design concept blew me away. In the end, it was all worth it. Thank You Codecademy for keeping this challenge. It took me 2 weeks to complete this project.

Looking at this as a guy with next to zero work experience, the portfolio site itself looks really nice!
My only critique is the projects section looks a little depressing for the statement “I have honed my skills by working on diverse projects, from static websites to dynamic and responsive sites. I thrive on challenges and continuously strive to learn and implement the latest trend and technologies in my work.”
But I assume you have plans for that anyway. Anyway, that’s my inexperienced impression, good luck! 
Thank You for giving your honest review. I appreciate. My past projects are not as good as this one but obviously day by day I have learned to create dynamic and responsive sites. So I wrote that maybe I will correct that statement and also try to keep better projects in my projects section 
Hello, a just starting guy here. The page seems as I like it, very minimalist, but straight to the point. Like it A LOT!
Just one thing that trully say was: That te separations between each h2 could be fixed in order for each"topic" to not be so far from one another. My skills, my projects, etc. are somewhat unnecesarly far from the other.
I hope I can create something looking that good as your porfolio in the near future!!!
Hi, just completed my personal Portfolio project. It was fun, but at times could be frustrating as i tried and eventually solved problems.

Here’s my $0.02:
- The site looks clean and not cluttered; however, there is a lot of white space in some of your sections. I would suggest maybe a textured background to go with your color schemes or perhaps some simple images or descriptions. At full size, your about me section could benefit by larger font or a bit of line height to fill in the white space.
- You may want to think about target:“_blank” for your clickable links, so it opens a new window/tab and doesn’t require navigating back to your page.
- I like the arrow icons that allow for progression to the next section; it’s a nice feature that adds personality to your site. I did notice that there isn’t any way to get back to the top of the page, without scrolling up manually. If you hdon’t want to add a home link to your navbar, you could always put a little clickable “home” icon on that last section, to replace the arrows.
- Another suggestion would be to add a bit of depth. Some box shadows on your buttons or text-shadows to add a splash more color would bring a little complexity to your page. I’ve attached a mock-up I edited in chrome dev tools, so you can see how it looks. I’m partial to the text shadow on the navbar.
I hope that wasn’t too much. I tried to give you the type of constructive criticism that I would want on my site. If you feel like taking a look at mine and offering your thoughts or suggestions, I’d greatly appreciate it.
My completely normal portfolio site, definitely made by a human . . .
I like your project, checking your project out has inspired me(the arrow direction, page presentation and simplicity ).
pardon me to state my opinion about the navigation buttons, In my opinion I feel it will be better to make it fixed rather than repeating the navigations at the bottom of the page. This will make it available for direct accessibility at any part of the screen. thank you for sharing your code with us.
