I added a header and footer and fixed some bugs. The site is mostly ready now.

I fixed a bug with the node grid being below the actual content(So it was everywhere where it DIDNT need to be :P) since the canvas was literally below the content.

I also added a skills section, which does a cool pop up when it gets scrolled to.

I want to get the website’s content to be done for now, I’ll add proper styling according to my wishes later, since i won’t have much time after this week for a long time 💀

I added the ‘i build x’ thing ive seen on so many websites.

I’ll experiment on adding a character by character deletion next though, instead of the current attempt to make it seem like its being selected then removed.

I removed the need to refresh the website and reduced the waiting time for the console as well. I felt that, while it was cool, it was also kind of long and maybe a bit annoying to refresh as well. So, now, the terminal just does a fade transition to the main website.

For the main website itself, i made the backgrounds follow the themes, but i’m not satisfied with it. maybe re-add the gradient in the background? Or something else? It doesn’t feel right for now.

The halo and nodes also follow the mouse quicker, I felt that this makes the experience a little more responsive.

Also i switched laptops and somehow managed to reset the git commit history ¯(ツ)/¯

I added easing to the nodes, a halo which changes color of the bg and made some stylistic changes.

I added a crt effect and it looks much better. Maybe I’ll make it a bit more extreme later.
Also, I added that weird node graph thing that I’ve seen in other portfolios. I used to think it was some weird css magic but it uses the canvas api so tbh it was not too complicated. I want to tweak a bit with its parameters though and add maybe some form of smoothing to it following the mouse? Also, I want a snake which eats these nodes :D
I’ve also just found out about GSAP, and I really want to try to use that in some way.

I think this is much better, implying that there is an issue while “loading” the site. I had to rewrite a lot of stuff though 😭

I think maybe something like this would be cool? Like you need to refresh the site to get to the “real” site?

I setup a vite project with tailwind and added 6 theme colours.
