Celebrating a Milestone: Launching My Personal Website After Two Years of Development

After a prolonged journey filled with experimentation, setbacks, and perseverance, I am thrilled to announce the completion and launch of my personal website—an endeavor that has spanned over two years. This project is more than just a digital resume; it serves as an interactive platform showcasing my skills, creativity, and development philosophy.

Introducing a Dynamic Digital Portfolio

My website is designed not only to present my work but also to serve as an open window into my development process. It features an array of innovative components, crafted to demonstrate both technical proficiency and artistic vision.

Highlights of the Project

• Procedural Background Generators:
  Four distinct visual generators created using only the Canvas API, without external libraries. These produce hologram cubes, recursive circuit diagrams, psychedelic mandalas, and quantum node networks. Optimizing performance for these visuals was a challenging but rewarding aspect of the project.

• Interactive Terminal in the Footer:
  Beyond aesthetic appeal, the footer incorporates a functional command-line interface with custom commands, hidden easter eggs, and even a mini game—featuring a self-coded dinosaur crash screen for added fun.

• Customized Markdown Rendering:
  The site includes an entirely bespoke markdown processor, enhanced with KaTeX for mathematical notation and Mermaid for diagrams, providing a rich and flexible content experience.

• Accessibility-Focused Design:
  Respecting user preferences, the site adheres to the prefers-reduced-motion setting and includes a “Low Chaos Mode” for users sensitive to motion or visual noise.

• Privacy-Conscious Approach:
  There’s no tracking, cookies, or intrusive scripts—prioritizing user privacy and a clean browsing experience.
