Is this the right fit?

For interface designers, creative developers and digital creatives presenting a focused selection of work.

SignalDesk is a portfolio, not a newsletter platform or operating system. Its brief stays local; it does not submit, store or charge for inquiries.

What is inside

01

Keyboard-accessible tabs

Switch between ABOUT, WORK and BRIEF with pointer or keyboard controls.

02

Expandable project details

Open fictional case examples to see problem, decision, artifact and evidence. Replace them with your own work.

03

A copyable inquiry brief

Collect type, timing, problem, audience and outcome in an editable message. Email drafting is optional after a real recipient is configured.

Before you publish

From demo to your page.

Check your custom Embed on the published page; it does not render inside Carrd’s visual builder.

  1. Edit the custom HTML/CSS/JS Embed with your name, positioning and actual project cases.

  3. Test tabs by keyboard, project details, brief editing and copying on the published page.

Practical questions

What does free mean?

The template costs $0. Your Carrd subscription and domain, if needed, are separate costs.

Which Carrd plan do I need?

Carrd Pro Standard or higher is required.

Is this a newsletter template?

No. SignalDesk is now an interactive portfolio with ABOUT, WORK and BRIEF tabs; it does not include a newsletter backend.

Does the inquiry builder send messages automatically?

No. It prepares a local message for copying. Optional email drafting uses the visitor’s email app after you configure the recipient.
