Devfolio: The Ultimate Resume/Portfolio Builder in Seconds!

This is a submission for the KendoReact Free Components Challenge.

What I Built

I built Devfolio — the ultimate portfolio builder that lets anyone create a professional-looking resume/portfolio in seconds.

The idea came from the frustration of always having to redesign resumes or tweak portfolios whenever applying for new jobs. With Devfolio, you can:

  • Choose from multiple templates (Classic, Creative, Kendo).
  • Customize fonts, themes, and profile settings.
  • Add your work experience, projects, and skills with ease.
  • Instantly preview your portfolio in real-time.

It’s simple, clean, and gives developers, designers, and job-seekers a way to stand out without spending hours fiddling with formatting.

KendoReact Components Used

To make Devfolio not just beautiful but also snappy and user-friendly, I leaned on 10 free KendoReact components:

  1. Button – toolbar actions and add/remove sections
  2. DatePicker – work experience start/end dates
  3. DropDownList – font family selector
  4. Input – text fields like name, role, and company
  5. TextArea – bio and project/experience descriptions
  6. Label – clean field labels in the sidebar
  7. RadioGroup – theme switcher (light, dark, custom)
  8. Checkbox – “currently working here” & export settings toggle
  9. Switch – profile photo on/off toggle
  10. NumericTextBox – global years of experience field

With these, I hit the hackathon requirement while keeping the UX smooth and intuitive.

⚡ With Devfolio, you don’t just build a resume — you build your story in seconds.
