# Portfolio

Your starting portfolio, to iterate on.

## Learning Objectives

- Customise the starting portfolio with your professional details
- Iterate on your portfolio every module
- Review your colleague's portfolio

## Requirements

At Code Your Future, we expect everyone to graduate with a unique professional portfolio. Begin building this portfolio as soon as you begin our Software Development Course. At first, your portfolio will be a simple HTML/CSS page deployed to Github Pages or Netlify. This is your MVP.

Every module, you will _iterate_ on your portfolio, adding a new project and improving your design and presentation. By the time you apply to Final Projects, your portfolio will help you show you are ready to be accepted on to a Final Projects team.

## Acceptance Criteria

- [ ] My portfolio introduces me and my work
- [ ] The design and code is my own, not a template or tutorial
- [ ] Each project is linked to my code on Github and the deployed project
- [ ] I have published my professional contact information on my portfolio
- [ ] My Accessibility and SEO scores are 100 on Lighthouse
- [ ] My portfolio is deployed
- [ ] I have replaced this README with one that describes my own portfolio

## Resources

- [Josh Comeau on building your early career profile](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXiaEXfkAec)
- [How to Build an Effective Dev Portfolio](https://www.joshwcomeau.com/effective-portfolio/)
- [CYF Graduate Module](https://module-graduates.codeyourfuture.io/)
This is my professional portfolio used showcase my web projects and is a platform for clients to contact me.

Hi Matthew! Your code looks great to me. However, I noticed that the README file is not very descriptive. Maybe you could add a description of each part of your portfolio there.

<div class="project__blurb">
<p>This was exactly as it says: a t-shirt order form, in HTML and CSS. This text is copy-pasted.</p>
<p>
In this project I learned a whole bunch of foundational principles
for front end: I learned how to structure data formally with
modern native form inputs, and how to <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Forms/Form_validation">validate that data client-side</a> with HTML5
attributes. The brief was fairly open - the design is all mine,
but the Acceptance Criteria was strict: I had to deliver a perfect
score in <a href="https://developer.chrome.com/docs/lighthouse/overview/">Lighthouse</a>, and meet some other validation constraints.
</p>
<p>
I spent a lot of time testing my code with <a href="https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/">Devtools</a> and thinking
carefully about the semantics of the copy pasted DOM. I also explored the <a href="https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/coverage/">
Coverage</a> evaluator and used it to improve my CSS: only delivering
precisely what my design needed and no excess code.
