I couldn't have said it better. Creating products now seem more viable than seeking for tech jobs as they are phasing out with the emergence of AI.

That doesn't mean one can't make doe with tech. Still on an 8X deal and its private. Didn't have to apply for no jobs out there, just made leverage with an already existing client.

So@original poster, you could start getting private clients. Your portfolio is more than enough.

Been 5 years with the client so it's not like it happened out of the blue. So, my advice is to start now building clientele asap. It would create revenue from the jump and residual income.

And set out to make over 1m a year in residuals. That way you pay yourself without doing much, annually. Most devs end up broke becos they overthink ish and want to save the world by building the next big product or they'd prefer working for a big startup.

I took the other route. I got rejected for 5 yrs and built my ish instead. I started like you as well so don't be scared one bit!
Thanks for this, currently i am building a startup, it is an errand platform like chowdeck but specifically for campuses that way students can get a good source of income without affecting their studies. We just started this year so getting profit is not something we are looking at till 10 years to come because we plan on continuous expansions to different schools with all available earnings but the thing is i also need a way to fund my business while building my career along the way.

As for getting consistent customers it is a work in progress because i am still learning how to communicate my skills.

Clean portfolio. Love the look. Hate the position of the menu button as it seems like it took the position of your logo.

I reckon you'd be an excellent Front-end dev with some work as you are already showing signs with your layouts but you need a lot of work.

Loving the next js structure and all that. Doesn't make it look like the typical AI-assisted design but overall, I'd say 70%.

Keep up the good work
I love the constructive feedback thanks so... much, i am still working on the portfolio im just trying to experiment with different design concepts and see which one fits best. I will work on the menu
