Congratulations! You clicked the thingy to get here!

Want to see my older, archived index sites? Well you're in luck! My first foray into neocities was a reference sheet for my characters. I used someone else's code and learned what certain html lingo means to parse what I should be adding where. This site was up for months, as I only touched neocities for a day or two and dropped it not long after.

My second crack at this website still heavily used someone else's code, this time from ribo.zone. You could see I was inspired by the multi-sidebar layouts that is popular on neocities. I treated this more like a directory of external links than a true "website."

This one is charming, because I had learned flexbox for the first time and was insistent that I code everything by myself, by hand. The result is this very simple looking index page. It was simple, and it did its job well enough. But I was craving for more.

Jumping off the "analog" feel of the notepad, I took it up a notch and made my background my literal desk setup. Although it was slightly played up for the camera. I'm not that organized most of the time. This site was great but it had two problems. 1) It was HEAVILY desktop-only and 2) The background took a long time to load the first time. So here comes our next contender.

Simplifying the layout using CSP assets, this second iteration of "desk setup" keeps the feeling of being in a tangible "place". It even has the first version of a secret bookmark! It's only colored-in on the index page, it turns white on other pages!

That's been a little history lesson for this website. I'll try to keep updating it as I learn more best practices and accessibility tools! And heck, I might even change things for the hell of it. It's my site anyways.

You're still here? Uh, well, here's a to-do list for myself:
- Make a dark mode
- Make mobile version more interesting with added background flairs
- Redesign the rest of the site to match the index page
- Draw every asset for the website from scratch (final boss)
