So, just got the shell ready, ultra-basic, has no functionality whatsoever, and I used a stock image as the bg-image lol!
Days 18-21!!!!! Over the past few days I have added and fixed and polished the last few features and I think the last commit ever to this project will give you an understanding to what I have done over the past few days and how I feel, here it is: Added it so you can exit the calculator easier just by typing "exit", added a new log to the about section and added completed text for after the completion date of: 19 of September 2026, removed a feature cause i wont have time to fulfill it and I have removed the under development text cause it's all done!!!!!!!!!!! :) Thank you to everyone who has followed this journey from day 1 to day 21! CYA!!!! :), there ya go, this is the last devlog to this project and I am really proud of the way I have come and what I have learned over this period and yeah, that is 21 DAYS OF PYTHON, thank you all for following along and bye! :)
So i just started off my project only the barebones are done and it has no f1 functionality atm whatsoever lol. So, I’m looking forward to making this absolute!
Yo guys, I just added an f1 score tracker that says what position Max Verstappen got in the last race and his total championship points this season. But OpanF1 was a pain to configure damn cuz a race just ended and it doesn’t like queries at this time lol. Anyways, this is the final project with the f1 tracker
Umm, just finished working on the pcb and has a few issues i’ll fix it tomorrow and kicad was, fairly straightforward no this-and-thats and shi
I just built this site and i had LOTS of issues and all i wanted to do was add a favicon, bg-image, etc. After a few youtube tutorials, reading the mdn docs and w3 schools page and ESPECIALLY STACK OVERFLOW for 67 million times (not quite but), I finally got it. After tinkering with the look for a million times, i settled on a single round ish? pattern bg image and after considering a grid backgrounf for the millionth time, i just settled on that picture. The hero section also has a bg-image of an F1 car and i tried making pills in the ui using s, i found out that i can never make it shorter horizontally and i finally switched to a and now, everything finally work™!
Just did some magic and I needed a LOT of help from mdn docs (then ditched js altogether and went for python lol) and then gemini (bru i had no experience). Now, what my bot does is /metropolis-whoami tells you your username incase you have amnesia (lol) and /metropolis-scan tells you how many people are active at the moment and how many people there are IN TOTAL and /metropolis-ask is just a groq gateway to gpt-oss-20b so if you ever forget what amnesia is, you can ask it . Now, debian 13 (trixie) on nest was givin me a HUGE HEADACHE cuz ‘twas saying sudo doesn’t work (i was already root so skill issue, that’s on me), then i tried neofetch, NO, apt install neofetch, also NO, then came good ole screenfetch then did apt install screenfetch and, HOORAY IT WORKS then i wanted to make it run 24/7 so i tried tmux but it wasn’t already there so installed it and now, everything is configured properly and set up!
I spent 2 hours fighting Tailwind for a personal site
This project was made for the Hack Club Stardance Personal Site mission.
The mission is basically to build and deploy your own personal website, with stuff like HTML + CSS, a public repo with a README, a fully deployed site, and multiple sections/pages.
So naturally I decided to make Metropolis Technologies, a personal hub for the projects and random stuff I build under CyberSlayerCorpz.
The original idea was pretty simple: dark UI, grid background, cyan accents, project cards, links, done.
Then Tailwind happened.
I got stuck on the most stupid things 😭
For some reason, getting items-center to behave properly was way more annoying than it should’ve been. Then grid-cols-2 decided it didn’t want to cooperate either. I also spent way too long changing colours and trying to get everything set up properly with the Tailwind config.
And then I had Google Fonts.
The / preconnect stuff somehow ended up causing problems with the rest of my setup, which sent me down another rabbit hole of wondering why perfectly normal things weren’t behaving normally.
Eventually I got everything working and ended up with this:
dark grid background
cyan accents
responsive project cards
custom Google Sans typography
custom cursor setup
sections for my projects, about, and links
deployed with GitHub Pages
The final result is pretty much what I originally wanted, and I’m actually pretty happy with how the project cards turned out.
I tracked the whole thing with Hackatime and ended up spending 2 hours and 2 minutes on it.
Honestly, a concerning amount of that time was probably just me staring at Tailwind classes and asking myself why grid-cols-2 wasn’t doing the ONE JOB I GAVE IT 💀
But yeah, it’s finally live and this is my submission for the Stardance Personal Site mission 🫡
Tech: HTML5 + Tailwind CSS + Google Fonts
Time: 2h 02m
Mission: Hack Club Stardance — Personal Site
Status: finally works™
I just added bookmarks (which were a pain cuz i got lots of the syntax wrong lol) and a search engine switcher between Google, Bing, and DDGS (DuckDuckGo Search).
First version of CyberTab
