It seems like Hacker News now has an algorithm that reads my web searches.

Lately, I’ve been reflecting on this. I’ve worked in several interesting sectors and developed amazing projects, but I haven’t documented anything. And in today’s job market, having a portfolio is almost essential.

I’m not a prodigy programmer, but in the industrial sector, programming is a key skill. This post motivates me to start structuring and sharing my work because it perfectly aligns with the idea that if you complete a project but don’t share it, it’s as if it never existed.

Nowadays, showcasing your work has become essential, not just for the community, but also for recruiters looking for talent.
