Looks good! Few things -
- Not sure if I would classify PHP as a framework and not a language.
- You have Tailwind CSS listed as both a framework and a library. Pick one category.
- I am pretty sure React.js is a library and not a framework.
TL;DR - make sure your skills are organized correctly. - If possible, for your projects and experience, start with the results/impact of your work. For the first project, you can say "Made job searching more streamlined by developing a LAMP application." Something like that. Don't start by saying what you did. First, say what the results of what you did were and then say how those results were achieved.

ignore me
YOOOOO
IM FUCKING BLIND
remove libraries
these libraries fall under regular js
unless you are going for some job that specifically wants that?
also you can defiantly expand on some of these project points, show what impact you did during it
like for example, when redoing an old next.js project, i realized that i could just cache some api calls on the frontend so it doesnt take so long to load certain things on the webpage.
this made my page go from a good 3-4 seconds of loadtime to almost instant
(i wouldnt recommend doing this, there are some potential security issues you have to dink out to protect your users but my point still stands)
like there is alot of fluff within your porject points
explain how you built it, what way did you do something. ex: how did you built the backend if you are looking at backend roles
vice versa for front end
like for example, storing data into a database doesnt make that info inherantly secure. did you use bcrypt or some other form of hashing/crypt lib for password storing? (please tell me you didnt just store a regular password into a DB)
overall go through these projects, read some code on how things are implemented, and redo these bullets
