Looking for someone to collaborate on a Django portfolio project, doing it alone sounds boring :)

Hello guys, I'm planning to build my personal portfolio website using Django, and I'm looking for someone who shares the same goal. I want to make something innovative, clean, and attractive that can showcase my skills, projects, certificates, and experience, basically a personal site that stands out.

I'm also aiming to try some new things in this project, like adding a multilingual option, light and dark mode, and maybe using django-cutton. I'm not going to be too strict about the structure, but I really want to make the portfolio customizable so I can easily update or expand it later. The idea is to make it flexible enough to publish it later so anyone can use it for their own portfolio too.

Later on, I'd like to expand it maybe add a blog, but for now, the goal is to build a solid version from scratch to deployment.

Tech stack (tentative):
  • Backend: Django
  • Frontend: Django Template with Tailwind, HTMX, Alpine.js (if needed)
  • Deployment: Docker (maybe a bit overkill, but it makes the deployment process easier) and GitHub CI/CD
  • Everything should work smoothly through the Django admin panel
I also want to make the portfolio customizable and open-source, so others can easily adapt it for their own use in the future.

I'm not that beginner in Django, but I've been finding it a bit boring to work on this alone. I also have a full-time job, so I'll be doing this in my free time. It might take about one or two months, depending on our schedule.

If you share the same goal and want to build something useful that you can actually use yourself, reply with a contact information or anything to connect with each other.

Let's build something awesome together🔥🔥!

Re: Part 1 of my Second Last Project (E-Commerce Project) of the Learning Phase

Amigo pontos q senti falta:
- Testes (use pytest) para seu sistema todo...implementa já eles ok
- Deixe na venv o Debug=False
- Valide os campos, tipow, se o e-mail retornou válido, ou seja, ex @ ex.com
- esse trecho na view: return render(request, "orders/order/created.html", {"order": order})
como a variável order está dentro do if de validação se der erro de validação dará tb erro nela. Revejá lá.

No teste inicial q fiz só senti falta desses detalhes.
