Ask HN: Best App Portfolios
I'm an iOS developer looking to set up a portfolio website to show some of the apps I have built and possibly attract some freelance work. Does anyone have any good examples of portfolios from mobile developers?
Thanks!
- tstegart 14y agoThere are a few mentioned in this article on tips for portfolio sites that might give you some inspiration: http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2008/12/10-characteristics-of-excellent-portfolio-sites/ http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2008/12/10-characteristics-o... One of the ideas I thought was great was to have a portfolio blog, not a portfolio site. You can post pictures of your work, but then accompany it with a technical summary of what problem you you were solving. Great for coders to showcase the stuff behind the app's UI.
- joshglick 14y agoThanks for the link I'm checking it out now. You're right about there needing to be more detail than just pictures for a coders portfolio. I'll try out the blog format. Thanks!
- jamesjguthrie 14y agoThis is what I am doing and it is attracting work for me. My website has been up less than 2 weeks and I've already started building an app for my first client. My site is just a WordPress blog with pages for my Google Play store, LinkedIn profile and a Contact Me form. Check it out - jamesjguthrie.com
