A developer portfolio is a collection of work samples and projects showcasing your skills and experience. A strong portfolio sets you apart from other candidates when looking for jobs. But not only that: A portfolio can also be a useful tool for networking, keeping track of your learnings, and, ultimately, establishing yourself as a subject matter expert.
In this tutorial, you will learn how to build a developer portfolio using Next.js and deploy directly from your GitHub repository to Kinsta’s Application Hosting platform, which provides a free .kinsta.app domain to get your work live quickly.
Here’s a live demo of the developer portfolio you’ll be building with Next.js. You can access this project’s GitHub repository if you’d like to take a closer look or you could fork this Next.js portfolio starter project I created. The starter portfolio contains basic codes like the styles, a Font Awesome CDN link, images, and basic structure.
