Most Technical Portfolios Are Proof-of-Existence, Not Proof-of-Work
· 6 min read
Most technical portfolios prove that a project exists. There is a screenshot, a stack, a demo, and perhaps a repository. None of those automatically prove that the candidate diagnosed the right problem, made a consequential choice, or learned from the result. Strong technical portfolio examples make judgment inspectable. They show why the work took its final form and which parts of that form belong to you.
