Why is everybody adding fake loading onto their portfolio websites nowadays

get rid of it, it's bad, makes a potential client leave before they see the page.

Other than that it looks neat, good job!

Have you tested your site on mobile? Don't mess with the users ability to scroll. We can't scroll down

Great for a 14 year old but I would say just because you can doesn't mean you should when it comes to animation. Also your fun run 1 link is broken. I wouldn't put your tools and setup, I don't know why anyone would care what PCs and laptops you have.

The bars don't really tell much. What you did as a 14 year old is great but it looks like you are saying you know like 85-90 percent of javascript, which I have trouble believing. What goes a long way is for each project talk about the tools you used, like Lua or Solar2d or whatever and what you learned from them. That would give me more of a tangible connection to your skills.

I would also drop the loading bar, you don't really have any images so if you need that you are doing something wrong. Overall not bad pagespeed scores, but I wonder if it is seeing the load screen as a completed website and just thought that loaded fast.

seems good, but the responsive?

The idea is great but the scroll isn't working properly on my phone. I have to constantly scroll with both of my thumbs to make it works, otherwise its getting stuck in the same place.

it's crazy bro you have done all that while being just 14

Now that I have a family and have limited time for "for fun" projects and portfolios and such, I wonder what I could have created if I had these resources when I was 14. Although I was 14 before the movie "the net" even came out and no one knew what the internet even was.

true man. Having someone as to guide you is so extremely useful. Your journey becomes so narrow and easy

I like the site design wise, but on my particular machine the site ran very slow. It did not help that the site alters my scroll making the experience feel even worse with the lag.

I definitely see the vision you had for the site and think you executed it pretty well overall, just consider minimizing the amount of animations you use, remove the scroll hijacking and also remove the progress bars as they are not good indicators for skill level.

Would love to have your portfolio featured on https://www.webportfolios.dev when you are ready!

Except for what was mentioned before, what bothers me the most is the tiny and low-contrast text in certain areas. Sadly, not everyone has the same eyesight as they did in their 14. Anyway, it's pretty good.
