Potentially confusing wording/example on Portfolio Zipline instructions. #8767
Comments
@Ramon-Carroll I think there is vagueness within the instructions so that the portfolio (and the other more challenging projects) can be your own. You have the freedom to make it however you want. But I guess there could be more clarification. How might you change the wording to make it more clear? |
Hi there, Eric. Well, perhaps we could go with something more like this maybe: There are many great portfolio templates out there already. However, as an added challenge and learning opportunity, you could consider building the portfolio page from the ground up yourself. Using Bootstrap can help make this process much easier for you. Does this work, or is it too explicit? |
@Ramon-Carroll I wouldn't want to suggest that "as an added challenge" to do it from the ground up, but rather it is a learning opportunity. Maybe change it to:

@erictleung That sounds cool too! Most importantly, it's clear. I'm interested in trying my hand at a pull request for this project, but I'm not exactly sure where it is in the source. Do you know where this is located? |

@erictleung Ok, I understand. Thank you very much. I'm working on this. |
Build a Personal Portfolio Webpage

Issue Description
From my discussion with some members on the new forum here: http://forum.freecodecamp.com/t/portfolio-page-project-framework-usage/3128/, it appears that there is some confusion because the current portfolio example: https://codepen.io/FreeCodeCamp/full/YqLyXB/, appears that it may have been built on top of a template: http://blackrockdigital.github.io/startbootstrap-freelancer/, while the instructions, particularly number 10 (Not listed as one of the rules, by the way.) seems to discourage the use of a template:
The portfolio example does add in a decent amount of customization, so it doesn't look like a complete copy/paste. Perhaps the wording in the instructions should be modified, then?
