Can I ask what country you're in? I'm in the US and my experience suggests the exact opposite of nearly every point in your first paragraph
Programming jobs here are plentiful, you should never work for free, your very first job might be a little harder to get than later ones but it won't be hard. And listing things like "tabs" and "pagination" on your resume feels really desperate, like you're scraping the bottom of the barrel to pad out the list as much as possible. The closest thing I would suggest is to maybe list some specific frameworks like React or Redux (or the equivalent for your area); though even then it's not really for the technical recruiters, it's for the imprecise algorithms that sift through the pile
