Inspiration
I wanted to make a personal website since a very long time, but I kept putting it off because I didn't want it to be resource intensive with gazillion frameworks holding it together. So one fine day after coming across Andrej Karpathy's website I decided to make a minimal zen-like website using just HTML and CSS (cuz he did the same thing :) )
What it does
It's a single page website which works as a control centre for the rest of my social links.
How we built it
Using only HTML and CSS, and of course a free domain from Name.com under GitHub Student Developer Pack
Challenges we ran into
I didn't know how to use media queries to set constraints on the screen size based on the device, like max-width etc. but somehow after endless hours of scrolling in stackoverflow I figured it out!!
Accomplishments that we're proud of
I wanted a minimal website, and a minimal website is what I made; me is happy :))
What we learned
Never estimate the amount of time it'll take for a particular project. Cuz it'll definitely be wrong
What's next for Personal-Website
I'm not very sure, cuz I have to scrutinise every feature before adding it. I don't want to overturn the delicate balance on the website. But that said I think I can add a small game on the website, kinda like the chrome-dinosaur-game, to add some personality.
