How I describe my projects
When describing a project in a portfolio, honesty matters as much as context, decisions, and outcome.
Showing just a list of technologies on a project card isn't enough. The reader wonders: what did you solve, why did you do it that way, what did you learn?
A short framework
- Problem
- Approach
- Key decision
- Result / lessons learned
This framework works for both technical and product-focused work. Don't oversell it; be clear.
