Whether you're a consultant, contractor, hobbiest or student, if you're a programmer (or designer, or author, or...) then you have projects. If you're a programmer with a website, then you've probably spent a few hours recreating boilerplate code for niftily displaying and organizing your projects. But no more.
Kevin Fricovsky and I both had been thinking about a better way to display our personal projects, and that has begun to take form in django-portfolio
. It is a pluggable and reusable app for displaying, grouping and organizing personal projects, and over the past several weeks it has begun to gain substance (Kevin's GitHub repository is the official repo, but for the time being my fork is a bit further along).
The first functional example--as well as a few screenshots--is right here, powering my projects section (and you can even see my project page for django-portfolio displayed using django-portfolio).
Let Kevin or I know any ideas you have, or just fork the repository.
