Hi HN! I'm a high school developer who just went through the college admissions process. Along with my Common Application, I submitted this website to Stanford to show them a little bit of what I've done with technology over my high school career. The site was built over three months last summer with Webpack and React.
It's among one of the best websites I've built to date, and even though they were unfortunately unable to offer me a place in their class of 2022, I thought you guys would be interested.
I hope you like it, and please feel free to leave any comments or questions -- I just recently added a mobile version as a result of feedback on my previous submission, and I'm always looking for ways to make it better.
Thanks for your feedback. The JavaScript is essential because the entire site is built in React (it's pretty much an SPA), but outside of that what would you suggest I change? I haven't taken any formal design classes so pointers in that direction would be appreciated!

Also the whole thing looks like a cheap template.
It's not bad for a high schooler, but you can do better.
I like the candour of your text, esp "dont have any customers" - nice to see!
When linking to your other website, there is a 404 on the todo app https://www.leungenterprises.com/work
Also, those three divs might like a gap / border between them as it currently looks a bit muddled.
Cheers
