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

Hiya,
Nice project, however it seems that you've used more than 30% AI usage within this project, please get your AI usage below 30%. For example by rewriting the AI parts of your project.
Awesome project anyway! I'd love to see how this turns out!
For any other questions, create a ticket in Slack—#ask-the-shipwrights.

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™!

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
