Hi there! I’m interested in becoming a product designer and was wondering what platform you all recommend for building a portfolio! I’m not super adept at coding, so that’s worth mentioning.

Squarespace has easy, modern templates if you are ok spending a little for the simplicity of building it. There are also good templates you can implement on Wordpress if you’re comfortable with a little higher of a learning curve.

I’m currently testing out building mine on Webflow and it’s pretty robust in the customization but you don’t need to know code - I’m liking it so far.

How do I get better at editing? I feel like I’m always missing really small stuff. Spell check is not the problem. It’s more repeated words or missing words. Sometimes a comma. The partner tells me to line edit, but it gets a little difficult when you edit your own work several times. I also have tried to print out my work. Sometimes it helps, but I do not always have access to a printer. Any tips?

Should I say no to the contract and just keep my fingers crossed regarding the other job? Should I discuss it with the company?
