The Journey to Rebuild My Portfolio
👋 I'm Liwei Ji For years, I searched for the best way to showcase my work but realized it was time for a change
I started with Behance simple, easy to use, and great for uploading designs. But as my needs grew, its lack of flexibility limited how I could present my work
Next, I turned to Notion. It’s excellent for organizing ideas but lacks interactivity and a professional feel. That’s when I realized I needed a personalized online presence
I wanted a platform to unify my content across LinkedIn, Medium, and beyond. These platforms work well individually but fail to present a complete professional image. A dedicated website would give visitors a deeper understanding of me
More importantly, my website should evolve with me not just as a static portfolio, but as a reflection of my growth. Every update marks another step forward
This rebuild isn’t just technical it’s an investment in self improvement, a journey toward excellence

Disclaimer
Thank you for visiting my personal portfolio website! I just want to take a moment to share a few things about it.
First, I'm not a professional front-end developer, but I’m passionate about learning and growing in web development. This website is a product of that journey built to practice and improve my skills. So, please keep in mind that I’m still learning as I go.
I decided not to use any pre-made templates for this site. I wanted to challenge myself and create everything from scratch, showcasing my own work and creativity.
As I continue learning, this website will keep evolving and improving. Some sections may not be perfect, but I’m actively making changes and fixing things. I’m always open to feedback, and your input means a lot to me.
Thank you so much for your support! I really appreciate your interest in my portfolio, and if you have any questions or suggestions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. This website isn’t just a place to showcase my work it’s also where I’m learning and growing. Thanks again for your understanding!
