This propels you to push your skills in whatever front-end framework you fancy, look at the coolest new technologies like WebGL and three.js, and even start to see some tutorials how to complete advanced css animations. This is great and all but literally a few months ago, you just learned what a Javascript loop is. Awe inspiring is great, but as you start out your portfolio can go a long way with having a simple clean site with a solid foundation. No, the site does not have to have the latest parallax scrolling animations, 3D page transitions, or a functioning ping-pong game (unless it really is your poison). It is also worth mentioning that those sites are created by experts or advanced developers pushing their understanding of their craft even further. So as I started to try to create my own portfolio, and try to envision a reasonable web site that a junior graduate can do here are a list of useful sites that I found useful. First, the list from junocollege includes alumni web sites, so of course they present clean simple websites that a starting junior developer can emulate. The rest are individual sites that you can find on the same list with crazy inspirationa sites, yet they are more subdued and rely on tastefully done responsive layouts.
