is it ethical to use third party libraries and other stuff in my portfolio website?
I am confused as to whether it is acceptable to use code produced by other people for something that is related to me and my creations. Do i have to resort to coding my portfolio website with pure css and js to demonstrate my credibility and experience as a candidate employee? Does the ideology of 'using other people's tools to create a better product' apply here in this context, or would it be considered plagiarism? Is there some sort of gradient as to how much i should use third party tools for my website for it be ethically appropriate, if it all?

Please tell me you’re not reusing an existing web server to host your site! Employers want to see that you can handle server programming. Obviously this would be hosted on an operating system of your own design, which is handy because you need to design the CPU too. Don’t forget to smelt your own copper for the wiring!
Dude you joke, but I wanna' do that someday. Down to the fuckin' smelting. Soon as I don't think I'll set everything on fire by trying.
Imagine how impressive yet fully weird that person would be. Like the second coming of Terry Davis.
