Bro. I will like to work with you, I'm also From mechanical engineering background, without a job yet, so frustrating. currently learning javascript. Please can you mentor me, my area of specialization in mechanical engineering is also air-conditioning and refrigeration.

DDayve:


Hi bro.
Sincerely, I don't think I have gotten to that status of mentoring people. Mentors are those who have started using software to put food on their table daily. Software is yet to start paying my bills so I can't start mentorship as at yet.
Check through programming comment section, you will find the big guns therein.

Edipet:
thank, I will appreciate if you could recommend, video resources and books for me .

I remember when I was using hasura with postgres.. but then, I realised I didn't even need them if I could just go with mine using nestjs/typeorm or sequalize and building out my own graphql server or RestAPI endpoints. At the end of the day you'll find out you'll learn more as you come at crossroads of choosing the best route to actualize your desired goals... you can simply stick with prisma.

I will say 4/10

Elements no align well overflow
Bad color scheme
Bad font choice
And kind of not easy to navigate can be solved with a nice color for background so users will be able to sight it in time

DDayve:


Thank you very much boss.

I am surprise at the overflow thing, I personally hate things like that.
Which of the pages did you experience that cos it's not like that both on my mobile and system here.
Which of the browser are you using?

I will work on other stuff you have noticed once I finish what I am doing.

Thanks boss

silento:


Firefox , I think z-index the header to a higher number will fix it

DDayve:


Thanks brother. I didn't even feel bad with what she said. Her comments has even helped me do some modifications.
U know stuff like this portfolio thing, when you show it to non-techs, they praise you and you feel on top of the world but when you bring it to fellow Devs, they see your error and possibly help you get better. My purpose of bringing it here is to get constructive criticism not even praise.

Pclemenza:

What did you use in building the page?

HTML, CSS. …
Please list all out. Thank you

DDayve:


It's a simple one.
React typescript, sass CSS, node express, MongoDb to collect visitors count, AOS, Nodemailer for email messaging. Deployed the simple backend with AWS lambda and the frontend on AWS amplify.

When you think you have seen the worst and ugliest looking website an acclaimed nairaland web dev can design in the name of a porfolio website, fiam, an even greater nonentity will pop up. Shebi if them ask this one now, he will say he is a web dev. Later him go they shout "bring me all your web development jobs, bring me jobs". with this rubbish wey him dey design. OP let me just tell you the truth, that your website na nonsense. Better go and look for a hard skill to learn like barbing or shoe making, you will not go far in this web dev path with this calamity you call website. Don't listen to all those fools above like that Greatigbowoman prasing you for this nonsense you designed, they are just trying to make you feel good, they don't like saying the truth but me, i go talk am as e dey hot. You designed nonsense, if i see better thing, i go talk say na better thing. This your work na pure bull sh*t

My bullshit portfolio finally got me a job oo. What do you think happened?

Devdevdev:
This clown went to copy and paste code.

Your portfolio website was" built the frontend with React TypeScript, Sass CSS and deployed on AWS Amplify and serverless backend with NodeJs, ExpressJs, MongoDb, AWS Lambda and AWS API Gateway." Lol. What nonsense. The stupid portfolio site doesn't even have any functionality and links don't go anywhere. Can you prove he copied it. Even if he did, is still part of the game. Why must you be very negative when you see good things

It is rubbish junior devs like this copy and paste clown that have made the job market oversaturated and difficult to get into.

your portfolio site is very nice. Good job. But I would personally preferred lighter background with darker text. Also some of your projects look like the are static pages and you still have lorem Ipsum in some. Another thing is this, I may be wrong, but some of your works look like some projects in Udemy. Like Natour, Trillo. I think I have come across such project, by a CSS guy. He was teaching CSS. My advice is to try and change the name of the project, and change one or two things so that, by mere hearing the name or looking at it, the person won't noticed if it was a tutorial. Nice one. Am also a self taught, looking to break through in getting a job, but I don't know where to start. My portfolio was rubbished here. So I removed all my css and currently building a new one. Here is my WhatsApp 08142534211. Pls let align

.Wow. nice one bro.. was that your first job? Please how did you do it? Will like to have your personal contact pls
