Updated Website

New Website

I was browsing for inspiration on a new website and I came across z0m.bi and couldn’t help myself from emailing them. Their website is so creating and well thought out that I had to email and see how they had done it and with what tech stack.

They were so nice and encouraging that by the end of the email exchange I knew I wanted to make a new website for myself with them in mind.

Design

I took direct inspiration from z0m.bi but I wanted to expand on it. See Z0m.bi has a little ASCII human that you can play with. I wanted a world for that human. A planet with trees, buildings, other people and more.

Seeding a World

Minecraft came to mind how the world is always changing and growing from a single seed. The seed is random at first but you can enter your own if you want.

Growing A World Every 10 Minutes

Every 10 minutes you can see the world grow. A description of your world will change as it grows and over time it will cover the entire frame of the webpage. You can even save it to PNG if you want.

Blog Posts

My previous webpage had blog posts but didn’t have image support. So I now have that with a new tool written in python for serving the webpage and javascript puts everything in the correct place with the right formatting.

Project Posts

Very similar to blog posts but with direct access to projects and not so much word vomit. More direction with posts.

Conclusion

You never know what you’ll find on the internet but I’m excited for this little webpage and to change it more over time.

the world behind the content grows a little every 10 minutes, tracked from your first visit — it never resets. type a seed to grow your own.
