I have been trying to find businesses willing to give free websites to my portfolio, no one seems interested.

If you have an existing website that you want to update or create a new website, or just a landing page...

I'm just offering it to 10 people only

I'm 23, mass-applying hasn't worked, so I'm trying something different — showing you what I actually build.

I'll be honest. I've sent dozens of applications into the void. I know a lot of devs here have been through the same thing, so instead of another generic "hire me" post, I want to show my work and let it speak.

Here's what I've shipped in the last few months — not tutorial projects, real products in production:

→ A medical booking & payments platform (Next.js, Drizzle ORM, Stripe, PDF generation) — multi-step assessment flows, cron jobs, the whole backend

→ A peptide e-commerce store (Next.js, Supabase, Tailwind) — full storefront with auth, RLS, admin dashboard, interactive dosage calculator

→ A B2B SaaS platform with AI/RAG-powered document retrieval

→ Semantic search over product catalogs using embeddings and vector storage

→ An n8n automation marketplace (React, Firebase, Express)

My stack: Next.js, React, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Supabase, Drizzle ORM, Tailwind, and on the AI side — RAG pipelines, LLM integration, embeddings, LangChain.

I'm not looking for charity. I'm looking for someone who needs a dev who can own features end-to-end — schema to UI to deployment — and wants someone hungry enough to treat your project like it's their own.

I work async, communicate clearly, and ship fast. If any of this sounds like what you need, DM me — happy to share my resume, walk you through the projects, or hop on a quick call so you can see if I'm the right fit. Zero pressure, zero risk.

Also happy to answer questions if any junior devs here want to chat about breaking into full stack + AI work.

Looking for a reliable dev to build or fix something web-related? I’ve got you covered.

I specialize in:

* Clean, responsive websites (static or dynamic portfolios, business sites, blogs) * Custom dashboards & data visualization (interactive maps, charts, real-time analytics) * AI integrations (automations, data processing, OpenAI workflows) * E-commerce stores with secure payments * Bug fixes, speed optimizations, adding features (user logins, forms, etc.) * Pretty much anything with React/Next.js, Tailwind, Supabase, Node, or similar

Check out my work: https://portfolio-sami.vercel.app

Rates: $20/hour depending on the project, but I prefer fixed prices but tell me what you need and I’ll give you a clear quote upfront. Also open to retainers for ongoing work.

If this sounds like a fit for your project, just DM me a quick description (plus rough budget/timeline if you have one). Happy to chat and see if I can help.

I made this site as a practice project and I’m trying to get better at building cleaner, more polished websites.I’m being genuinely serious when I say I want honest feedback, not just compliments. I want to know what feels good, what feels off, and what makes it look amateur if anything does.

I’d especially love thoughts on the design, layout, copy, and overall feel. I built it with Claude and ANTIGRAVITY helping me along the way, so I’m also curious whether it feels like something solid or still obviously rough around the edges.

• Angular (or strong modern TypeScript framework experience)
• Microservices architecture
• Docker & Kubernetes
• Kafka
• REST API design and integration

Hey everyone!

We're building a lifestyle and apparel brand that merges creativity with culture to deliver bold, expressive designs. Our goal is to create apparel and accessories that go beyond fashion and give individuals and communities a way to wear their story.

We're currently at a very early stage and our website is under development, our first collection designs are nearing completion, and we're preparing for manufacturing.

At this stage, we're looking for someone passionate about building brands from the ground up and helping us increase our public visibility.

What we'd love help with:
• Social media strategy and planning
• Content creation (posts, reels, storytelling, captions)
• Growing brand awareness and engagement
• Building an authentic community around the brand

Budget (being fully transparent):
• Social media/content creation role: $60-80/month (can stretch up to $100/month for the right fit)
• If someone can handle both marketing strategy + content/social media execution, we can offer around $130–150/month

We know this isn't a huge budget, and we're not pretending otherwise. We're an early-stage startup looking for someone who enjoys the process of building something from scratch, experimenting creatively, and growing alongside the brand.

If this sounds interesting, feel free to DM me with your portfolio, previous work, or even just a little about yourself.

Thanks!
