site archive
Nothing on the internet is ever truly permanent, but also nothing on the internet is ever truly gone. This site is always in flux and I tend to completely redo it on a semi-regular basis. Whenever I make a major change to the look of the site, I'll link the archived version here.
Version 1.0
August 2022 — March 2023
The very first website I ever coded (and it kind of showed). I somehow managed to make the navigation sidebar stick to the top completely on accident, which I thought was very cool. Unfortunately I wasn't yet familiar with the types of features that are actually reasonable to implement on a static site, so I was getting very ambitious with the site structure in a way that made it difficult to update. Because of this, there was very little actual content on the site at this stage, and I quickly abandoned it once my life got too busy.
Version 2.0
March 2023 — May 2023
Coming back after a protracted absence, the site got a complete redo. I unfortunately ended up ditching the sticky sidebar in favor of making the site responsive (prior to this it was not mobile-friendly at all), but the design stayed overall the same otherwise. I decided on a different way to do the file structure, but didn't actually end up doing much with it in this short-lived blue period.
Version 2.1
May 2023 — July 2025
This version was really just a new coat of paint on the existing site structure. Not much about the actual HTML code changed between this version and the last; the CSS got updated with new borders and an animated background, and at one point I figured out how to add more sections to the navigation sidebar which was a neat feature. I really liked the new look— there's a reason this is the longest-lived version so far, but eventually it just didn't feel like me anymore and I wanted something new.
