Built by an instructional designer, for instructional designers

A portfolio that says you know instructional design.

Most portfolio builders let you show a course. This one shows the thinking behind it: the problem, the analysis, the design decisions, the rollout, and what the evaluation actually found. It is a portfolio shaped like your process.

Why it exists

A recruiter can tell a course from a case study.

You can build a portfolio on any site builder in a weekend. What you get is a gallery: screenshots, a tool list, a paragraph. It proves you can operate Storyline. It does not prove you can design instruction, which is the thing you are being hired for.

This template is structured to be ADDIE-forward, so that the argument comes out whether you plan it or not. Every project page walks the same five stages, and every section is optional. An empty one simply does not appear, so a project with only two sections filled in looks finished rather than incomplete.

Analyze

The problem, who it was for, what your research surfaced, and the findings that came out of it.

Design

User stories, your solution, learning objectives, the visual system, storyboards, and where AI was and was not used.

Develop

Early drafts beside finished screens, the supporting materials, and the resource itself, embedded in the page where it can be.

Implement

Each rollout on its own: audience, method, dates, which version shipped, the launch checklist, and the issues you hit ranked by severity.

Evaluate

Your measures and the numbers, what people said, whether the objectives were met, and what you would change.

The tour

Six things it does that a gallery cannot.

A gallery shows finished work. This shows where each piece actually is: published, marked Coming soon while you're still writing it, or archived without deleting it. Categories are yours to define, not a template's fixed buckets. And it's the same screen your visitors see, edited in place, not a separate dashboard.

In the box

Everything runs on your own host.

No database

Your content is one file you can read, back up, and take with you.

Edit in the page

No coding necessary: sign in and the editing tools appear where the content is. Everyone else sees the finished site.

Version history

Replace a job aid and the old one stays reachable, so a link you shared keeps working.

Guided setup

A first-run wizard checks your server, then walks through the copy one screen at a time.

Built to be read

Built with accessibility in mind: keyboard navigation, real headings, described images, and severity named in words rather than color alone.

Works without JavaScript

Scripts add polish and never obscure content.

Backups you control

Download a snapshot of everything whenever you like. Restore from it the same way.

Sign in with a passkey

Face ID or a fingerprint instead of a password, if your host supports it.

Before you buy

What you need to run it.

✓A domain and any host that runs PHP 8. The kind that costs a few dollars a month. No Node, no build step, no command line.

✓A way to upload files. Your host's file manager or any FTP client.

✓HTTPS if you want passkey sign-in. Most hosts include a certificate for free.

✓No coding. The setup wizard checks all of this for you and tells you how to fix anything it finds.

Contact your host if you're not sure.
