    Yeah pretty much. I have a personal website that I set up with a pipeline to automatically build and deploy. Creating it taught me a lot of things and it was definitely a focus when I had interviews. Homelabs are great too, shows you have some self driven interest in the subject, especially if you don’t have a bunch of work experience to advertise.

      Ah, cool then I’m already kinda on that track. My “portfolio” just tends to be a section of my resume that lists technology I’ve worked on and improvements/automations that I’ve put in place. Helped me get my current gig.
