About this block

Learning Log presents five skills as a vertical timeline, newest first: motion fundamentals in After Effects (In progress), data visualisation theory (In progress), TypeScript for design tooling (Paused), variable fonts in production (Finished), and contrast and accessibility audits (Finished). Each entry carries a month stamp, a status badge, and a one-line note naming what the skill changed in real work.

Entries are one array typed with a status union and drawn along a single spine of dots and rules. The distinctive choice is the Paused status, admitting what stalled is what makes the finished entries believable.

When to use

Reach for this block on a /now page, a learning page, or an about page for someone whose practice depends on staying current. The installer replaces the five entries with their own skills and keeps the dates honest, including the pauses.

A natural flow around it on a Portfolio Pro page:

Before

• Now page

After

• Reading list
• Skills section

What you can display

One strong use is the five-entry skills timeline. Other learning log layouts:

• Course log. Formal courses and certifications with completion dates instead of self-directed skills.
• Yearly review. Everything finished in one year as a retrospective, all badges set to Finished.
• Craft journal. For makers, each entry is a technique attempted in the studio with what worked.

Tip: the note should name what changed in the work, a learning log without consequences is just a wish list.
