Yes, this is fine. Just list your projects in the application, hiring people will ask you questions about them and you can share stories about the kind of things you did. Don't downplay your experiences. Most people spend their free time on their phone or in the TV. They wish they were like you, but they don't have the drive to do so.

Interested people are interesting. Talk about the things you tinker on with a shine in your eyes.

Not downplaying experiences is probably something I need to practice and get better at. I've interviewed people that have made simple and mundane things sound interesting and amazing. And it's true, there's nothing more infectious than enthusiasm. Thanks for the helpful reply
