●MidSolve My Problem
Portfolio analytics for job seekers, but Google Analytics already does this for free.
Strengths
- •Company-level visitor detection turns anonymous traffic into actionable warm outreach targets.
- •Project-level click tracking isolates which projects resonate with recruiters, enabling portfolio iteration.
Weaknesses
- •Core feature—view and click tracking—requires portfolio hosting or embed code; no friction advantage.
- •Job search analytics is solved by GA4, LinkedIn recruiter insights, and email open tracking plugins.

Target Audience

Post Description
When developers apply for jobs they usually send a portfolio link, GitHub, or resume.
But the process is a complete black box.
You never know:
• if the recruiter opened your resume • which repositories they checked • what projects caught their attention
So I built recruiter analytics for developer portfolios.
It tracks:
• profile views • repository clicks • resume open rate • viewer location insights • company type viewing the profile
The goal is to give developers a feedback loop similar to product analytics.
Instead of guessing what recruiters value, you can see which projects or skills actually get attention.
I wrote a technical breakdown of how the tracking works and the reasoning behind the design here:
Curious to hear what the HN community thinks about adding analytics to developer portfolios.

ShareMyGit – Share private Gitea repos without making them public
Makes sharing private Gitea/Forgejo repos annoyingly simple: read-only links, portfolio aggregation, and one-click revocation without mirroring or forcing viewers to sign up. Smart, pragmatic scope — this is a small utility that nails a real pain for self-hosters, though I'd like clearer docs on auth flow, download/clone restrictions, and auditability.

I rebuilt my CV site as a practical, machine-readable portfolio
This is a practical playbook: the repo bundles resume.json, evidence.json, availability.json, an agent‑card and an llms.txt plus CI checks and IndexNow pushes so your CV is both human- and agent-discoverable. Clever bits: automated sitemap/index pushes, link-checking Actions, and explicit A2A‑style metadata (agent‑card.json) — that’s not something you see on most personal sites. What’s missing for wider credibility are outcome metrics and external verification (recruiter-facing analytics, attestations, or an A/B test showing improved contacts), and a clearer signal-to-noise story for what recruiters should actually consume first.
