Rebuilding my personal website to better fit my wants and needs
Rebuilding my personal website to better fit my wants and needs
Main Page Design
~
I think I’ve finally landed on a design I like!
I’m still working on filling it out but this is just a little test to make sure I actually liked it before committing.
The design consists of 88x31s for navigation, linking to friends’ pages, giving information about the site, and later linking to pages that inspired me and that I really like. It’s not particularly advanced or stylish but it’s original and something I like!
Minecraft Page
~
I’ve been struggling to decide on how to theme my main page, so I worked on another page instead!
I wanted a place to share all the mods I’ve worked on in the past so I made a /minecraft subpage for my site! It’s auto-populated via a Flask template pulling from a JSON file.
It turned out pretty well and I have an idea for the main page but it’ll require my finishing some more subpages first.
Basic Progress
~
I’ve got a very simple layout working as well as a nice folder structure and backend. It’s not much so far but I’m trying to move some things over from the last site without just completely copying what I did there.

My old website was pretty cool but my want to keep it 100% compatible with any device that supports HTML 3.2 meant anything I could do on it was very limited. As such I’ve decided to soon retire it to a retro.* page under my domain and work on a newer, more modern page.
~
To start I’ve set up a Python Flask backend (not the greatest, sure, but it works) serving the page. One feature I decided to bring over from my old page was a randomly-generated subtitle on the page that I quite enjoyed.
