1 Portfolio projects

One of the best ways to prove your online computer science skills is to create and share your own portfolio projects. These are tangible examples of your coding, designing, or problem-solving abilities that you can showcase on your website, blog, or social media. Portfolio projects can range from simple apps and games to complex systems and algorithms, depending on your level and interest. The key is to choose projects that reflect your passion, creativity, and learning goals, and to document your process and results clearly and effectively.

Most programmers use some sort of platform for version control and code storage (Github, Gitlab, Bitbucket, Mercurial, etc.). This allows them to collaborate on other projects or share their own projects for others to collaborate. When looking for a job they share their software repository to showcase their work so that prospective employers can see firsthand their coding skills and experience.
