Feature

A page for every project, told properly

Each card on your page opens its own project page at makerhandle.com/you/project: the write-up, screenshots, stack, your role and what it earns. A case study without building a site.

What a project page holds

Every project on your makerhandle page links to a page of its own. Fill in what you have and leave the rest; empty sections are simply not drawn.

  • Write-up in Markdown: the problem, what you built, what happened. Up to 8,000 characters.
  • Gallery of up to 12 screenshots with captions, opening in a lightbox.
  • Tech stack as tags, up to 16.
  • Your role and a timeline (started, shipped), so group and client work is clear about what you did.
  • Highlights: up to eight one-line results, such as "2,000 users in the first month".
  • Links to the source code, a live demo, the App Store, Google Play, docs, a longer case study and a video.
  • Video from YouTube or Loom, behind a poster that loads nothing from them until a visitor presses play.

It is the structure a good portfolio case study follows, with a form instead of a blank page.

Revenue, status and a way to hire you

If the project earns money, its page shows a monthly revenue chart and the current figure. Connected to Stripe, Paddle, Lemon Squeezy, Gumroad, RevenueCat or Shopify, it carries the provider's check mark; a figure you typed in is labeled as self-reported. See verified revenue.

The project's status (Active, Building, Acquired, On hold, Discontinued) sits by its name. And when you are open to work, each project page ends with a short "Get in touch" box, so someone impressed by one project can reach you without hunting for an address.

Built to be found and shared

Project pages are server-rendered, wear your page's theme and have their own link preview image, drawn from the project's name, logo and colors, for X, LinkedIn and Slack. Once a page has enough to say, about 20 words of description or verified revenue, it is listed for search engines, with structured data describing the project.

Link a single project from a resume, a cold email or a launch post instead of your whole page. Visits and clicks show up in your analytics, so you can see which project people actually open.

Free, with every template

Project pages come with every plan and every template. The free plan covers five projects; Pro is $20 a year for unlimited projects, all nine templates and a custom domain, so the page lives at yourname.com/project. See pricing, or how developers and designers use them as a portfolio.

Questions

Does every project get its own page?

Yes. Every project on your makerhandle page links to its own page at makerhandle.com/yourname/project, on every plan.

What can I put on a project page?

A Markdown write-up, up to 12 captioned screenshots, a tech stack, your role, a timeline, up to eight highlights, links to source, demo, app stores and docs, a YouTube or Loom video, and revenue.

Are project pages indexed by Google?

Once they have enough content, about 20 words of description or verified revenue. Thin pages stay out of search until you fill them in.
