Show HN: I Made a Portfolio Page That Showcases My Writing Journey on Medium (mymedium.info)

2 points by nishujain 2y ago ↗ HN

In addition to programming, I’ve been writing on Medium for a couple of years but never saw much growth (mainly because I’m never “consistent”).

But that didn’t stop me from building “Medium Portfolio Pages”. Using the Unofficial Medium API (mediumapi.com), I was able to build these beautiful and dynamic pages that showcase

- My overall stats and metrics, - Publications where I contribute, - My top articles, ranked by views, reads, comments, and claps, - My books, - Other insightful charts and graphs

And the best part: all of these stats and numbers get updated daily! So I don’t have to worry about manually editing anything. I can just instantly share the link to my Portfolio Page and BAM!

Also, there is a powerful search functionality to filter through my articles based on topics and keywords. It can be very useful for a potential client, or to just backlink my old articles.

Overall, I was pretty happy with the output, so I decided to open it to the world.

Hey everyone, my name is Nishu. I came up with the idea of these Medium Portfolio pages while trying to grow on the platform. I haven't found much success there (yet), but I built something useful in the process.

I showed these to some of my friends who are kind of big shots on Medium, and they loved it!

If you're a writer on Medium, I think you'll find these pages extremely useful. So please check 'em out and feel free to give your most critical feedback (I can handle it).
