Alright so, I have a web shop with cms system that I made using vanilla html css, js and oop php. Fullstack zero frameworks, completely custom made, before AI etc. Its 100% personal project, my first web app, and...it sucks.
But im proud of it! It took me two years to make and host it live, and I learned a lot! It was hard and painfull and I just dont wanna delete it from my life.
But still...it was more of a, “look what I can do” other than “this follows proffesional web design or development standards”.
The site is fully functional and live for couple of years and it has its own github repo.

Now at the moment im making a much more complex webshop with cms using laravel with livewire and its already much better in almost every way. (I had also grown little bit, learned a lot and used AI to help me deal with design issues which sped things up. Im mostly backend developer)
Now If I want to represent my self, when I finish the second webshop, should I even keep or show my first project? Lets say I wanna go to Upwork, and if I wanna show people what I can do, should I “hide” my first project, should I post it as “juvenille first app”, or something like that. What is your advice? What would you do?
