What should a front end developer's portfolio site look like?

Question

Career in IT

Hello!
I am tormented by such a question, until I understand what to do, I can’t get to work.
I want to create my own portfolio site, upload layout, links to scripts, etc. there.
Portfolio is designed mainly for employment.
Actually what interests me:
1) How should the "Ideal Portfolio" look like? What pages should be (About me, my work, contacts, etc.)? Or should it be one-page, just broken into blocks?
2) What should be indicated in it, and what is better not to talk about, what contact information is allowed to be indicated, and is a feedback form needed?
3) What should be the design, maybe there are examples that you like?
I want a simple, convenient portfolio, but I still can’t decide which is better.

Answer 1

IMHO
1) About me - I would not write, who cares what kind of sociable, proactive and empathic person I am. It is better to give examples of working with links to sites and with detailed case studies. Not just a sheet of page renderers, but a detailed description: Purpose, tasks, difficulties, how I decided which stack, the results of the work. Conventionally, you can write it on some medium and just pull it up to the portfolio page. (Medium.com will obviously be indexed better than your site)
Also, attach your github and actively maintain it, mark some of your findings, maintain projects, develop tools for the community, and so on.
Yes, you also need to remember to attach contacts.
2) Anything that you are not shy about attaching (telegram, mail, social networks) [postal address is not necessary]
3) Of course, you can do "simple and clear like Apple", but why. Do as you like and as you want, because people will come to you to offer a job and it’s better to let them be hooked by what you like, then you will get high from work.

Answer 4

I don’t know exactly how it should look, and probably there are no standards. Just don’t drag your personal life there)
And personally, I really like this portfolio (or website)

Answer 6

A very interesting question with an equally interesting answer. There is no perfect portfolio. You look at a dozen examples, figure out how you need it, how exactly you like it, how exactly it is ideal for you, and you do it. But in fact, in work, the main thing is work: take orders, do it, get feedback and more work. Work is the best portfolio. It came in handy for me purely for practicing layout once), when there was no work. And now it arrives in the same state - cool for me, once, but now - well, so dull), it would be necessary to redo it, but there is no time).
