Answer:
At least 3 cases: 1 Team Project, 2 pet projects from different domains. Each case — with research, wireframes, UI, and design rationale.
Minimum portfolio for a junior UX/UI: 3 cases in case-study format. One — Mate academy's Team Project (with a real developer team).

Figma is your main tool — master it.
