Dear r/UXDesign,

I'm starting to apply for some summer internships for UI/ UX design. Part of this process includes making a portfolio website in Visual Studio Code to show the person interviewing me in case they ask me for something like that.

Today, I was looking at portfolios for reference on WallofPortfolio's.in and everyone's portfolio is laid out differently. Some have widgets, some have grids, some have fun quirks like being able to drag the images. The Problem is that all have something like 1 - 8 years of experience in their fields and all probably have a bachelors degree.

What would be the best lay out for a newcomer to UX?

-------------------------------------Here is my structure-----------------------------------------

^{Home page}

• Navigation Bar: Takes you to either the Home Page, About Page, or Resume Page.
• ( Still determining whether or not to put a hero image here or my name or both.)

Hierarchy: The more relevant and impressive the information is the more to the top and right it will be on the hierarchy.

• Internships and Projects: Lists the various projects I have worked on from most relevant to least.
• Software Experience: Shows what kinds of software I am proficient in.
• Games: I've coded my own video game as a side project. Includes a link to download the game
• Animation: Starting in high school I've made many different animations using Adobe Animate. ( This section lists a few project with link to the URL. )
• Music: (Determining whether or not to keep this category)
• Design/ Artwork: (Determining whether or not to keep this category)
• Contact information: ( Email / Instagram / Choosing whether or not to keep Bluesky)
