I’ve added a simple about page to my website. I’m shy to connect to people, but I want to put myself out there if anyone has the desire to do so or want to know more about my website or myself.

i made some text cliques that are open for all to join!
my cliques
@calijori, this is cool, but did you mean to start every snippet with </p> instead of <p>?
Also, what icons are we supposed to use? Whatever we have handy?
Cool little cliques! BTW, I love the background on that page. I have a purse made out fuzzy material that looks just like that!
i made a /now page
usually the purpose of a page like this is to remind me i have things to work on or do rather than keeping everyone up to date. it also isn’t necessarily meant to keep me accountable. it is more about keeping me out of feeling hopeless

I’m brushing the dust off my CSS knowledge with some practice exercises. I made a quick little one-column layout using a bit of flexbox and CSS grid:
I’ve always thought of myself as rather middling at CSS, but this came together quickly. I think I have more latent knowledge than I give myself credit for.
It doesn’t hurt that some of the (relatively) new CSS capabilities like layers and grid are wildly powerful.

Really happy with how my bookshelf page turned out. It motivated me to learn more and tinker with Liquid templating for Jekyll, the SSG I use, and inspired me to finish reading more books this year.

I implemented h-entries :) It’s kind of messy and buggy right now but I wanted to do the bare minimum so that the verifier likes it.

I’ve updated the colophon page on my website. It explains the tech stack and lays out my privacy, monetization, and AI policy.
I’ve also added some index pages:
More CSS practice! This time, I’m building a layout with a sidebar. Matthew James Taylor’s guide to fixing a footer to the bottom of a page gave me a lot of help in structuring this version.
And it’s responsive!
The little bio in the corner is an h-card, for some microformats2 practice.
Even though I still don’t quite know exactly how I want my site to look, building things out through practice exercises like this is really giving me a sense of structure and stability. Almost like, shoot, incremental progress might be the way to go???

Y’all, I got it working.
I wrote a programming language, and compiler, because I was bored and no one had a language like I wanted to use.
Anyhow, its now running TWO pages on my website through cgi compiled binaries. I mentioned it on the discord, but this is so cool (to me).
One program runs the guest book. It takes user input, saves it to a text file, and then stitches it into a pre-existing html header and footer to make a complete output page. So every time the guest book gets signed it regenerates that static page. Pretty cool.
THEN, I was able to make a program that took that same POST html button thing to fetch plain text data and display it in an Iframe. SUPER COOL. So now you can see the code that runs the page.
I mean its super geek, but its not javascript.

Neither are working for me.
Spent much time in linting and formatting the source code of leilukin.com with Biome and dprint (with the Markdown and markup-fmt plugins).
I have also added Biome and dprint as development dependencies for my website, so you can see my configurations for these linters and formatters in the Git repository of my website.

I wasn’t expecting your homebrew programming language to be a riff on COBOL. I approve.
Showed this to my SO because I knew it’d tickle his brain. His question: Does this even have a stack?
NO! No stack. LOL stack. Its all fixed memory map, old school. You declare a variable at the top and that’s it. No inline variables. There is a base delcared memory size of… 16k? in the compiler, and if you need more, then you declare how much you need up front with ### MEMORY #sumnumber.
It also doesn’t have nesting, heap, dynamic memory, or any of that modern nonsense. Curly braces be damned!
Its top down, logic flows in one direction, you can seek another step/function, and you can sort of go back, or break out with a WHEN statement.
Anyway, way off topic for this thread, I was just exicited I got it working.

I made an oldweb inspired Pixel Dress Up Game! The kind where you have to drag it up the whole page just to play! XD I can’t link to it but you can find it on my site listed on my profile :)
