The portfolio gallery is useful when your website contains different types of content or so much content. With the help of a portfolio gallery, you can easily display all the content on your front page to the user.
To create a portfolio gallery we will need only HTML and CSS. We can use JavaScript also but in this article, limits are set so we will use HTML and CSS only. Divide the whole article into two different sections in the 1st section, we will create the structure for the portfolio gallery, and in the second section, we will make sure the gallery looks attractive.
