A few months ago someone told me my portfolio didn't clearly show the impact of my work. Fair. It had nice screens and not much proof. So I went back to training. Since then I've rebuilt the whole thing with three AI coworkers: Claude Code, Cursor and Codex. I designed it, they wrote most of the code, and my main job was saying "no, smaller" about 400 times. Every case study now shows the problem, the decision I made and what changed, with a source next to every number. If there's no number, it says so. Then it got a bit out of hand 🤭: • a samurai intro (turn your sound on) • a day/night switch that slices the page in half with lightning • Slice, a sword game with a live leaderboard. My high score is very beatable. Please don't. 😂 • an ink dragon that tells you random facts about me • a 30-second film in my own voice, below It still loads in about a second on a slow phone. I'm now a designer who cares about load times. Nobody warned me that would happen. I had more fun building this than I've had on anything in a long time. Have a look: egbemodeyomi.com Tell me which case study you'd read first, and your Slice score. If you're building something and need a design engineer, say hi.

A source next to every number, and admitting when there isn't one, is what most portfolios skip. Same thing I keep relearning shipping with AI: the code comes fast, the saying no is the actual job.

Appreciate the honesty about the numbers.

A day/night switch that slices the page with lightning is next level 😂 And "no, smaller" 400 times is too real. Which of the three was best at actually listening?
