My tips:

• Show off your projects
• Use the dev.to API!!!
• Use vanilla CSS (NO bootstrap, NO frameworks)
• Add ways of contact
• Link your social (Dev, GitHub , twitter, codepen, repl, discord, facebook, etc. )

It very much depends on your end goal.

Looking for a job? Showcase the breadth of your knowledge and technical skills.

Looking for client work (employed by a general business)? They do not care about your CSS ninja skills - focus on the problems you can solve for people, avoid Jargon etc.

Also it depends on what products do you want to build / services you offer.

For SAAS products people are bothered about delivering on time, customer satisfaction, security, etc.

For E-Commerce / Brochure websites it is about conversions, traffic, Return on Investment, etc.

They are all very different, so without knowing what you are looking to achieve any advice is just generic.

Here, without spamming, the link to one of my articles about that:

My points were:
Care your little projects
Take your time
Make it interactive - Tell a story
Make it personal
Be Creative

Ps: It was very fun to write, don't hesitate to tell me what you think with a comment

Showcase the stuff you do.
Your work should speak for itself. The portfolio should work as an index of your works.
Design it the way you want it, don't be mainstream. Be you.
Iterate, iterate, iterate. As you evolve through life, so should your homepage.

Here is mine: gnsp.in
This is the 5th version/iteration of my portfolio, I made this version 2 years ago. I'll be updating it in a few months maybe.

Content first.
Writing story about why, how and what you have made for each project is a good start IMHO.
Don’t make them boring.
Design and fancy stuffs come later.
