As a manager, I won't ask for code by the time someone is in the interview, but I'll read anything shared/linked before that. Usually, that's a GitHub link toward the top of their Resume/CV.
I would say that during the interview is too late to share source code, but one candidate brought in a big binder full of source code. It was a good interview. I read their code and asked them questions about it. It was bad code (as lots of "good enough" code is), but they actively engaged in a discussion with me about how it could be improved. I hired them.
Edit: I'll always read a candidates source code if I can find it. Linked from your website might be too subtle for me on a busy day, though. Depending how prominent your site is on your CV, and how prominent your code is on your site.
As an applicant, I'm really thankful for your response! Actually, and thinking it deeply, during one of the very first interviews I got, the interviewer asked me about my opensource collabs and projects on GitHub. But looks more like he just read it over, and that's all.
