ForkMyFolio

The Challenge

Most developers struggle to keep their portfolios up to date. Manually editing HTML for every new project is tedious, and existing "portfolio builders" are often too generic or lack the technical depth needed to showcase real engineering work.

The Solution

ForkMyFolio is a full-featured management system that treats a portfolio as a dynamic data set. It provides an admin interface for project tracking, skill management, and metadata control, allowing the user to update their entire professional presence in seconds.

Technical Implementation

Built on a Vue frontend backed by a Java Spring Boot API with MySQL persistence and Redis caching. The platform sustains high traffic with low latency on dedicated infrastructure — no cloud scaling required. Includes dynamic project tracking, skill management, PDF export, and a full backup and restore system.
