Ask HN: What are the best personal project websites you've seen?

I just finished graduate school and am trying to design a small personal website that showcases the research I've done to potential employers and explains how and why my skills would be useful in an industry/startup setting. I also want to give a little background about myself.

I've been looking at a variety of people's personal websites; however, I've noticed most of the researchers I follow tend to highlight their papers/publications on their website, which doesn't seem quite so useful for someone who wants to work in industry (in most of my interviews so far, I get the impression that publications are secondary to the technical skills I've acquired).

What are the best personal project websites you've seen? Something that a potential employer would look at and think "I need to hire this person".

Thanks!
