Lol. Of all the dev social media, like Dev.to, Hashnode, stack overflow etc .. I find that the most help I get is RIGHT FUCKING HERE BABY. So I'm at it again, asking for help in the form of a question. I'm still looking to get a frontend job. My question is, is a short and sweet e-commerce website, mostly showcasing the ability to code a design, so not fully functional but has great JavaScript and React features in it, like mobile responsiveness, slide nav, item filter, sale price, add to cart animation, pagination, etc..a good resume project that can get you hired? I'm having a hard time finding which if my projects are good, or embarrassing to recruiters.

    We actually use a stub for such a site as interview test.

    Mind you, its intentionally super simple but it allows for some problem solving.

    So I would say is a good example.

    Filter, pagination, a real db containing all the product info? Maybe a CMS for adding or editing the products? Ahh so many possibilities. Sounds good.

    Just build something. Doesn’t matter what.

    Nobody’s going to read your code. Recruiters don’t have time and HR don’t care. Build whatever you find interesting with the sole expectation that you’ll learn something nice.

    Don’t wait around thinking there’s some magical perfect project that’ll attract recruiters more than others, that doesn’t exist.

    @Benutzername I actually kind of created my own CMS with airtable and React. Every field is editable from the client. So I could totally do that. Honestly, thanks a lot for the idea. I had only made a simple restaurant menu with it!
