You must have a portfolio website as a designer. This is due to the fact that you require a platform to display your skills and personality. You can upload your designs to websites like Behance and Dribbble, but they don’t offer much customization for you to utilize as your official portfolio website.

While every designer has the ability to create the perfect website that represents them, not every designer has the knowledge or skills to code their own website. They also don’t have to.

You’re not a developer its okay.

You can create your UX Portfolio website using a variety of no-code websites.

Notion

Notion is an all-in-one workspace that allows you to write, plan, collaborate, and get organized. You can take notes, add tasks, manage projects, and more.

Notion lets you construct pages that you can organize in pretty much any way you want — kanban boards, wikis, calendars, notes, databases, you name it — and it offers you complete control.
