I started working on a very simple Password Engine. It is absolutely not secure and I am fully aware of that 😌! I found a password generator by Proton that I could have used like a normal person, but it was written in Rust… and for educational reasons (and also to torture myself), I decided to translate it into React instead. Was this necessary? No. Was it painful? Yes. Did I learn things? Also yes.

Right now it barely works, but that’s kind of the vibe. Next step is implementing the endless list of features I’ve imagined at 2 a.m. Longer passwords, more customization, toggles for everything, probably sliders I don’t need, and at least one feature that exists purely becauseee…why not? This project is becoming less about security and more about seeing how far I can push it before I question every life choice.

I continued working on a mockup demo of the password generator site, which generates exactly zero passwords. I added an intermediate settings mode, an advanced settings mode, and a custom pack input, all of which are currently placeholders that exist purely to look impressive and give future me a problem to solve. Nothing actually functions yet, but the layout strongly implies i am a professional, which is honestly the goal at this stage. I haven’t started screaming for help, but the site is clearly warming up for that phase.

Built the tree structure and set up a demo with a bunch of placeholders that do an amazing nothing. The website will be in React.

Skipped a day because of Christmas dinner prep. Am I almost done? Continued fixing bugs but decided to quit. They were hiding too well. Added a function to proofread instead. That’s what authors do, and probably what I should be doing for my English assignments. Except now it’s making more mistakes than it’s fixing. I need an editor… for my editor function. :(

I got the program to backspace and fix its mistakes, including deleting entire words and retyping them, because humans are weird like that. I spent a considerable portion of my lunch break studying the dumb patterns we use to prove we’re the opposite of artificial intelligence. Genuine, organic stupidity. It hits about 90% accuracy, with a few loopholes I haven’t caught yet. At this point, I’m calling those “features” designed to mimic human incompetence in an office environment.

Created the base skeleton of the project.
It runs via AutoIt script because Windows aggressively disapproves of anything interesting, and this was the closest approach to believable keystroke injection. Set up typo Map so it can make beleivable typos that get fixed. Currently leaves typyos alone.

Shipped this project!

I made this personal website thing, themed around Captain Jack Sparrow because obviously the world needed more pirates. It’s a mix of portfolio, dashboard, a blog, and pure chaos. I painstakingly completed it with a floating compass that does not point north, a manifest that spouts random quotes because why not, a caffeine meter because vibe, a “Wanted Poster” bounty system for all your imaginary crimes, night mode for dramatic affect, and a blog that actually uses Firebase because, I don’t know, I like pain. I “learned” a ton too, like how much effort it takes to make a page site talk to Firebase without losing your mind, how to make vanilla JS behave, and that no matter how carefully you plan, your compass is still going to lie to you. And yes, somehow I convinced myself this was a good idea.

I gain my first experience with backend!
Decided today was the day I would finally confront the mysterious beast known as “backend.” Spoiler: it is terrifying. Spent a solid hour (maybe two) watching an endless loop of Firebase tutorials. Tried to follow along. Failed spectacularly. Watched my API keys sit there, unhidden, mocking me. Made a mental note that hiding them is apparently a myth and I probably should have just accepted my fate. Decided to pivot before my brain melted: authentication. Spent the next chunk of time debugging sign-in, sign-out, and anonymous users. Error messages popped up every chance they got. Did I make progress? Kind of. Did I understand what I did? Also kind of. Am I done hiding my API keys? Absolutely not. /Scrapbook/

Day 1 - Created Base Website

Started with a template that I don’t remember how I acquired and built a simple interactive site. Most of the time went into JavaScript because I got obsessive about small details. My indecisive, aesthetically confused brain cried through CSS, but the static site is now complete. I also shamelessly used images from the internet and did not bother organizing them into an assets folder. That problem belongs to Future Me.
