Severity: MEDIUM
Situation: Spent 6 months on portfolio, have 2 projects to show

|---|---|
| Hero | Name + title + one line |
| Projects | 3-4 best pieces |
| About | 2-3 paragraphs |
| Contact | Email + LinkedIn |
Week 1: Design and structure
Week 2: Build core pages
Week 3: Add 3-4 projects
Week 4: Polish and launch
Severity: HIGH
Situation: Recruiters check on phone, everything breaks
Symptoms:
Why this breaks: Built desktop-first. Didn't test on real devices. Complex interactions don't translate. Forgot about thumb zones.
Recommended fix:
[ ] iPhone Safari
[ ] Android Chrome
[ ] Tablet sizes
[ ] Slow 3G simulation
[ ] Real device (not just DevTools)
/* Complex hover → simple tap */
@media (hover: none) {
.hover-effect {
/* Show content directly */
}
}
Severity: MEDIUM
Situation: Great portfolio, zero contacts
Symptoms:
Why this breaks: No clear CTA. Contact buried at bottom. Multiple competing actions. Assuming visitors will figure it out.
Recommended fix:
| Goal | CTA |
|---|---|
| Get hired | "Let's work together" |
| Freelance | "Start a project" |
| Network | "Say hello" |
| Specific role | "Hire me for [X]" |
Hero section: Main CTA
After projects: Secondary CTA
Footer: Final CTA
Floating: Optional persistent CTA
Severity: MEDIUM
Situation: Best work is 3 years old, newer work not shown
Symptoms:
Why this breaks: Haven't updated in years. Newer work is "not ready." Scared to remove old favorites. Portfolio drift.
Recommended fix:
| Action | Frequency |
|---|---|
| Add new project | When completed |
| Remove old project | Yearly review |
| Update copy | Every 6 months |
| Tech refresh | Every 1-2 years |
Keep if:
Remove if:
