I’m currently working on a project in C where I have a choice between using a library for hash tables or simply creating my own hash table from scratch.

What would look better on a Github portfolio from an employability perspective?

    Unironically yeah, sitting on the other side of the table it’s painfully obvious when people do resume projects. I’d rather talk to you about something you’re passionate about.

      I mean, the more I think about it, the more I think it might be relevant. They’ve got this very bizarre format (instead of something like JSON) and I wrote a thing to parse it and format it back out.

      The joke being “Prison Architect” (especially as a game) sounds very bizarre to be on a resume.

        You don’t have to mention the name of the game. Simply mention the language, and what the mod does.
