Creating a portfolio as a developer means showcasing work that often lives in code repositories. While that’s where your skills shine, it’s not always the easiest way to communicate what you can do.
So, when building a portfolio site, the challenge isn’t just presenting projects—it’s crafting something that makes your technical work clear, accessible, and impressive to fellow developers, recruiters, or collaborators. But some developers have found creative ways to showcase their skills while keeping the depth and complexity of their work intact.
We’ve compiled a list of 16 of those developer portfolios that turn technical projects into compelling showcases of skill, offering inspiration for how to present your work in the best possible way.
Note on Site Speed: The site speed metric provided for each website in the list is based on Last Contentful Paint (LCP), a core metric that measures the time it takes for the largest visible element to load. This gives a realistic sense of when the main content becomes visible for the user.
