The design will mostly be the same, but we're switching to a different stack, changing the way collections work, and creating a shop.

Posted to React based Portfolios , Jun 14, 2017 React is likely overkill for a portfolio, unless you're using it as a learning exercise. I suggest that you first determine your expectations, and create a design (or static version of your site).
Chances are, you'll be using React for just a fraction of what it's capable of - in such cases, writing your own JS is usually more fun and optimal.
Posted to New & Improved Google Design, Jun 14, 2017 That sticker set is awesome.
Posted to UX Designer Portfolio Critique, Jun 14, 2017 It's a very practical portfolio and gets the job done, and I love the color scheme.
The code could be cleaner and the design could be more modern. You already seem to know HTML/CSS, but I suggest that you read up on HTML5 and semantic elements (header, nav, footer, main, etc), as well as CSS3. As far as the design goes, I suggest that you look at inspiration galleries to get an idea of what improvements can be made.
The best thing to do is continuously iterate until you're happy with it - that will open you up to lots of learning. I wish you the best!

Posted to Does anybody still use FTP clients, if so which one?, Jun 07, 2017 I've been using Transmit for several years and I love it. Lots of customization options and it plays well with S3.
