One of the more difficult things junior developers seem to struggle with is knowing what portfolio projects to build to be marketable and competitive in the job search. I went over a variety of types of projects and how much they help you stand out among your competition.
Not only that, but I went over the pros and cons of each, misconceptions of what is common but ineffective advice given around these projects, and how to be effective at making the more marketable options even more impressive.
If you're wondering what types of projects to build for your portfolio to stand out, this one's for you.
