Dotfolio — Free Portfolio Template for Framer

Dotfolio is a free 2-page portfolio template for Framer with no CMS. Home carries your intro, experience, and contact hooks, and Projects holds the work grid on its own route. Skip it if you need CMS case studies or a services page: JORGE covers that depth. More free Framer templates live on the hub, or start with the portfolio shortlist.

Who should remix Dotfolio?

Dotfolio fits builders who already have GitHub repos and Figma links and want a site that reads like a résumé plus a project shelf, not a full creative agency pitch. Backend engineers, frontend developers, and product designers shipping their first public portfolio after a role change will appreciate the two-route map. You are not maintaining a blog or a CMS collection here. You are giving recruiters one URL that loads fast on mobile.

Walk away if your proof lives in long case studies with process write-ups. That workflow wants CMS project singles, which this file does not include. Studios selling retainers need Services and About routes, not just Projects. For editorial case studies and a Services collection, remix JORGE instead. If you only want one scroll with no second page, Ferio is the lighter pick on yoframer.

What Dotfolio looks like

The preview skews modern engineering portfolio: zinc neutrals, Geist-style sans type, and tight spacing that feels closer to Vercel docs than to a pastel Dribbble grid. Headlines do the hierarchy work. Body copy stays small and scannable so code snippets and project thumbnails stay visible above the fold on a phone screen.

Motion is restrained. You get enough polish to feel current without scroll gimmicks that distract from repo links. The honest fight is color. The default palette is cool and minimal. A loud personal brand or illustration-heavy identity will spend a night retuning tokens before the site matches your deck.

Pages included in Dotfolio

Two pages, named exactly as Framer lists them:

• Home: role line, experience beats, selected work teasers, and ways to reach you on one scroll
• Projects: dedicated grid or list for case thumbnails with room for stack tags and outbound links

There is no Contact page, blog, or 404 in the marketplace map. Plan on anchoring inquiry CTAs on Home and linking out to email or Calendly. Broken campaign links will need a 404 you add after remix if your host requires one.

What is distinctive about Dotfolio

• Developer-first hierarchy. Sections assume engineering titles, stack lists, and repo links, not agency service menus.
• Projects on its own route. Recruiters can bookmark /projects without scrolling the entire bio again.
• Two-page discipline. You ship credibility fast instead of debating a twelve-page sitemap.
• Static editing only. No CMS collections means every project card is a frame you duplicate, which is fine for a dozen repos, painful for fifty.
• Light chrome. The layout stays out of the way so screenshots and diagrams read clearly.

Framer breakpoints and form components ship with the platform. They are not a reason to pick Dotfolio over another portfolio file.

When to remix Dotfolio, and when to skip

Remix Dotfolio when you are an engineer or designer who needs a credible portfolio this weekend and you are fine updating project cards by hand. The Bikash Sahu marketplace profile points at portfolio starters in this register, and this file matches that narrow job.

Skip it when case studies need CMS fields and a Work Single layout. That is JORGE. Skip it when you want one long homepage only. That is Ferio on the hub. Still comparing files? Return to the portfolio shortlist or browse free Framer templates before you remix.
