Hey everyone! I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'm hoping to get some guidance on creating a portfolio website. My vision is to have a bulletin board layout—think of it like a corkboard—where I can easily upload and showcase photos and videos in the future. I would prefer to work with something like CSS through Visual Studio, but honestly, I'm a bit lost on the technical details.
The tricky part is that I'd like the layout to dynamically resize based on how I'm presenting the photos and videos, very similar to how the PureRef app works. So, I essentially want a web version of PureRef, but with the ability to keep adding new content down the line.
If anyone can recommend services or individuals who could help me with this (preferably at an affordable rate), I'd really appreciate it! I've heard of tools like Figma or Canva, but I'm open to any better suggestions. And please, no suggestions to learn to make it myself—I've tried that route and it's just not for me. Thanks a bunch!

If you're looking for something simpler, WordPress.org is a solid choice! It allows you to keep your portfolio updated without having to learn too much code. Plus, there are a few themes and plugins out there that can give you that dynamic corkboard look. For hosting, I recommend Nixihost—they're affordable and I've had a great experience with their support.
You might want to check out WordPress! They have some great portfolio themes, especially with a masonry layout that could fit your corkboard idea perfectly. It’s pretty user-friendly, so you can manage it without digging too deep into coding.
Thanks for the recommendation! I've heard about WordPress from another comment too, so I will definitely explore it further.
