65%

for a recruiter to judge a resume, mostly on titles, employers and dates

19%

fewer 22 to 25 year olds employed in AI-exposed jobs like software development than expected

Stanford Digital Economy Lab

Fewer openings means every posting draws more applicants with the same courses, the same bootcamp projects and the same list of skills. A junior resume has no job titles or employers to stand out with.

A portfolio shows what that resume cannot, the projects themselves, how you explain them and where they run. It gives a recruiter evidence to look at and an interviewer something concrete to ask about.

Building one from scratch costs weeks of design, frontend work and hosting setup, time that should go into studying and interview prep. Many developers start a portfolio site, leave it half done and apply with a bare GitHub profile instead.

Tessera Lite

Building a portfolio from scratch takes weeks that should go into studying. Tessera Lite skips the build, so you fill in a dashboard, publish, send employers a link the same day and get back to studying.

How it works

Three steps from signup to a live portfolio.

  1. 01

    Pick your address

    Choose a handle, and your page lives at yourname.litessera.com.

    • Choose Developer, Designer or Other as your role. You can change it later.
    • Handles are unique, so nobody else can take yours once it is saved.
    • Search engine setup is included from the start.
  2. 02

    Fill in your page

    Add your bio, projects, links and social profiles from the dashboard. You can also sync your GitHub repos.

    • Your name, tagline and location.
    • A profile photo and a banner image or GIF.
    • A bio and a quote for the top of the page.
    • Project cards and links that point to work hosted anywhere.
    • Your GitHub, LinkedIn, X, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok profiles.
    • Public GitHub repositories, synced whenever you choose.
  3. 03

    Publish

    Your page goes live the moment you publish, and every later change goes live the same way.

    • Show or hide any section of the page with a switch.
    • Preview the published page as visitors see it without leaving the dashboard.
    • Changes go live as soon as you publish, with nothing to deploy.

The dashboard

No code, no hosting setup, nothing to deploy.

The dashboard has a section for each part of your page, and your changes go live as soon as you publish them.

Themes

Pick colors, fonts and a layout on a live preview of your page.

The Themes editor shows your page as visitors see it. Change the accent, secondary and background colors, choose heading and body fonts, switch between four layouts and set light, dark or automatic mode. Nothing goes live until you save.

What you can do

Projects, links and profiles an employer can check in one visit.

Projects

Add cards for work hosted anywhere, with a title, a short description and a link.

Page sections

Show or hide the introduction, projects, links, GitHub repositories, categories and skills.

GitHub sync

Connect a GitHub username and pull its public repositories onto your page whenever you choose.

Search results

Add a job title, topics and languages so Google can describe your page in its results.

Social links

Link your GitHub, LinkedIn, X, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok profiles from one place.

Preview

See your published page as visitors see it without leaving the dashboard.

Four layouts

Classic, Sidebar, Bento and Showcase arrange the same profile differently, and switching keeps all your content.

Project covers

Add a cover image to a project, or let the page draw a tile from its title.

Private email

Show your email on the page or keep it private and let visitors reach you through your links.

Live examples
