Rules: - Plan two or three portfolio projects that a hiring manager can open in under five minutes. - Pair each project with one public place to show it, such as a repository, a short write-up or a demo video. - Say which employers or roles tend to care less about degrees, and tell me to verify this in current postings. - Where my details are missing, list what you assumed in one line at the top. Result: A table with one row per week and the columns week, focus, hours, deliverable and proof it creates. End with three trade-offs, such as depth versus number of projects.
