Today I started my personal “fun-site”.
What’s a “fun-site”?
- A fun-site is basically a site where you add all the games, gadgets, and random programs that you like but don’t have somewhere to use them on. It’s different from a portfolio since I’m not putting my personal information on it.
Today I started by making my homepage. I wanted something pastel and white with a slight rainbow gradient. In addition, I added some random assets that I found online, reduced the opacity, and gave them an animation bounce.
Afterwards, I worked on the “desktop” portion. So, I wanted to create the illusion that the site has a desktop built into it with folders and applications that you can drag around. I created a drawing pad on the desktop using the built in HTML5 feature, and then I added a music played that loops a COPYRIGHT FREE (don’t come for me) spot of Lo-fi music that I found online.
On the left hand side I added folders (but only one is currently functional). The “Projects” folder is going to hold all my favorite coding projects and link my GitHub repositories so that people can try them out!
The last thing I did today was start my aquarium. So, I got the assets from Minecraft and basically just made a fish tank with wandering fish assets that are animated TO THE MINIMUM (I got kinda lazy at that point). Buttttt… you can feed them… kind of. I didn’t fit it properly and the fish behavior is a bit weird, but I’ll fix that later.
Anddddd that’s all I did today.
Goals for next time:
- Add to the folders, make them more functional.
- Add to the aquarium.
- Add cool stuff!
