I've released over 500 projects in there in the following languages: HTML, CSS, JS, Python, SQL, Processing.js, +dozens of other CSS and JS libraries

Also, would it be better if I exported all my projects into my personal website or is it fine the way it is?

Thanks a ton for your feedback! -LeaferStudios



No, it is not. You have 500 tutorial projects all worth nothing. Get out of khan academy, create your own portfolio and github profile.


What do you mean by tutorial projects? All my projects are created from scratch (starting from a blank screen), often using vanilla JS and CSS. If you combine them it is close to 1 million lines of code. Each one has many comments from users who enjoyed it. Why would they not be resume worthy, if mostly all other developer portfolio's I see have only a few projects with a couple hundred lines?

I will create my own portfolio and port these projects there. Plus, do you think almost 700 projects on GitHub would look good?
