The work, where you can actually check it.
A portfolio page with screenshots proves nothing — anyone can screenshot anything. The real project portfolio, with details, stack decisions and outcomes, lives at cv.madhurjya.com. This page tells you how to evaluate it — and any portfolio you are comparing against.
What is in the portfolio
The full portfolio at cv.madhurjya.com carries the project-by-project record: WordPress and WooCommerce builds, Shopify stores, custom Node/React applications, performance and migration work for clients across the US, UK, Australia and the Gulf. Project pages there include what was built, on what stack, and for what kind of business.
On request during an evaluation: live URLs from this portfolio you can open on your phone, run Lighthouse on, and check contact details for reference conversations. That is the standard the vetting guide sets — this practice is checkable against it like anyone else.
How to read any portfolio, including this one
Three tests that survive contact with reality: live beats pictured — a URL you can visit outranks any mockup; relevant beats shiny — one project like yours beats ten that are not; verifiable beats asserted — "ask my last two clients" beats every testimonial card. Portfolios that fail all three are brochures.
