a personal website! but it's in the form of an OS, with windows you can open and close to learn more about me.

Once you ship this you can't edit the description of the project, but you'll be able to add more devlogs and re-ship it as you add new features!
links app is done! the rainbow order looks really good. i also made the projects app! you can scroll through a list of projects with fun hover animations on the links for all of them. next up is the Fun app (badges, webrings, etc) and the Uses app (what software/hardware do I use?)
hello!!! wrote a holy yapparonie for the about app, and started on the links app. for some reason when i include my <ListLink> component more than once it doesn't show so i'll have to figure that out. but i figured out the really weird hover bug! it was because the launcher was still taking pointer events and overriding the windows :pf:
spent like 2hr trying to debug an extremely annoying issue when hover would just stop working randomly :pf: it happens less now so i think i fixed it kinda sorta maybe.
also spent a while trying to figure out why my props weren't being set when i realized i was doing it the complete wrong way.
anyways! now you can click a button in the app launcher, and an app opens! and it remembers where you put it (don't know why it does that but im not complaining)
used hotkeys.js to make ctrl+space open the app launcher! and also figured out how to make a bouncy ease and the site feels soo much funner now
been a little while! i made a status bar on the top, as well as an app launcher that opens smoothly when you click the button! the apps in the launcher are also smoothly animated, similar to the macOS dock. i now realize I probably should have used a component framework for this project instead of astro to facilitate all the communication between components, but ig i'll have to deal with this for now.
(ps. did you know you can press ctrl+d to insert a new cursor at the next occurence of the currently selected word? it's a lifesaver for tailwind)
added a wallpaper, generated with haikei! I also redesigned the window - the header is now a fun pop-out tab on the left!
i added a lil window that you can drag around! im not really happy with the design tho, i need to find a style I like
I really want to know how you make logos for your projects.
