A list of developer portfolios for your inspiration
A community-maintained list of developer portfolio websites, collected as a README of links. Useful as a reference when building your own portfolio — you can browse what others have done without committing to a framework or design system. No code, no starter template, just links.
1833 entries gives you a genuinely wide sample of styles, from terminal-themed to 3D WebGL to plain text. The Python test suite catches duplicates, broken alphabetical ordering, and emoji in names — more maintenance rigor than most link lists bother with. The GitHub Actions workflow auto-checks for parked/redirect domains, so dead links get caught without manual triage. The JSON feed export means you can actually query the data programmatically if you want to build something on top of it.
It's a flat list with zero curation signal — 1833 links with no indication of which are actually worth visiting versus which are broken Vercel deploys with a headshot and a Lorem Ipsum about section. No screenshots or previews mean you're clicking blind. The link checker catches dead domains but not sites that exist but are embarrassingly unfinished, which is most of them. The 'language: Python' label is misleading — the repo is a README; Python is just the tooling for the maintenance scripts.
