Site Details ​

This is the 2026 rendition of my personal portfolio. The primary purpose is to share ideas and catalog projects. It's also meant as a place to showcase sketches, apps, code-doodles, and more!

Built with Vue + Vitepress. Allows for file-based routing and SSG for faster page loads.

Inspirations ​

This site is a mosaic of a bunch of different sites, ideas, and concepts that I've taken note of throughout a myriad of digital journeys. I've tried my best to blend everything together into something cohesive, but also something that I'm proud of and enjoy using. Here are some of the most stand-out pieces of inspiration:

  • Retro computing / computing history:
    • Mac classic
    • Apollo Mission. Margaret Hamilton* is my personal programming hero
    • Punchcards
  • General design aesthetics:
    • Cassete Futurism
    • Dieter Rams
    • Clipboards and paper / sticky notes
  • Personal sites on the indie web:
  • Other notable projects

Fonts: ​

  • Main body/monospaced: Space Mono
  • Display font: Departure Mono

Tech Stack ​

  • TailwindCSS: Heavily customized theme and hand written CSS where Tailwind is cumbersome
  • Vue: Such a breath of fresh air after working with React.js/Next.js for so long
  • Vitepress: Allows for the entire site to be statically generated
  • Hosting: Self hosted on my VPS with a Coolify instance. I'm using Docker for smooth builds and in case I need to migrate to a different host.

Analytics ​

I've done very little with analytics in the past, so I thought that this would be a good learning opportunity. I've hooked up Plausible analytics to the site to see page views, which is fascinating to see!
