A static and mobile-friendly website made to practice frontend after being away for a while. Feel free to play around and explore! The mimic will come around next ship I think, but until then, I'll leave this site alone... (if there are any bugs plz email me (it's in the footer))

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!
I thought I'd have this finished earlier considering I was making this for a ysws but things got out of hand :D (very pained smile) On the other hand I'm happy with the current state of things, so maybe this project ain't so bad after all.
Using my github commits as a guide, this is a very late devlog for 25h (note that a few hours were spent on code that was scrapped ;-;):
day one: added a section for stationery, which was the original idea; wrote base css, which remains in one file to this day.
day two: added the vending machine mechanisms (this was also part of the initial idea) by taking data from a json file (who would've thought it takes a while to curate things?) and converting that to html; scrapped the section layout in favor of a magazine catalogue spread style; made pages dedicated to the making/history of the website, footer, and 404 error.
day three: added two more sections, meaning updates to tmo and json data; updated the footer with better functionality; found out about mix-blend-mode and applied that to the vending machines; somewhere along the road also added the animations for the machines.
day four: added themes using css attributes (very fun) and localstorage; added one more section, thus additions to json data and footer in kind; wrote the alt text that i procrastinated on.
day five: added a welcome/warning screen for new users based on localstorage.
Most of the time was spent on meaningless CSS even though I had a pretty good idea of what the website should look like. All in all, making a cohesive website like this one was really fun! Would I do it again? Maybe next year!!! I'll keep working on this one - see the text document for what I plan to add :)
ps themes are in the footer... :'D
