Celebrating the Launch of My Personal Website After a Two-Year Journey

After two years of iterative efforts, setbacks, and perseverance, I am excited to share the culmination of my personal project—a website that embodies my passion for development, creativity, and open-source collaboration.

A Platform Beyond a Portfolio

This website is more than a simple showcase; it functions as an interactive portal highlighting my development process through innovative features and custom-built tools. It’s designed to offer visitors an immersive experience, revealing how I approach problem-solving and creativity.

Highlights & Technical Insights

Creative Procedural Generators

• Developed four distinct procedural backgrounds using only the Canvas API, avoiding external libraries. These include:
• Hologram cubes
• Recursive circuit tree patterns
• Psychedelic mandalas
• Quantum-inspired node networks
  Optimizing performance for these visualizations remains an ongoing effort.

Interactive Terminal Footer

• A footer that’s more than aesthetic—it’s an interactive command-line interface with custom commands, hidden easter eggs, and even a mini-game featuring a dino crash screen.

Custom Markdown Rendering Engine

• Built from scratch, this renderer integrates KaTeX for math typesetting and Mermaid for diagrams, offering a seamless content experience without third-party dependencies.

Accessibility-First Design

• Features like prefers-reduced-motion support and a “Low Sensory Mode” ensure the site is inclusive for all users.
• Committed to privacy: no cookies, no tracking, no unnecessary noise.
