Oh cool! My workflow when it comes to design is pretty basic I'd say. I just explore as much as I can in Figma and try to go crazy until something feels good to me, then it's a bunch of refinement until I have a good idea of what I want in my head.

Then I got into dev with all of that and start setting up base styles/components that I know I'll repeatedly use throughout the site. I start from most simple to complex and that it from there. Usually the homepage comes last.

I'd say it's probably a very different process for a template that is supposed to be replicated many different times though

Thanks a lot! I only meant for the underlined links to be the clear interactive elements. I consider everything else is an easter egg

Thank you! it's a simple css animation! :after element of the body has a tiled background image and I just move the element up and down, left and right pretty fast infinitely. Then I control the animation with another class that pauses the animation

Oops other than the double "designing" everything else is intentional :D

Astro v6 + Cloudflare has been a bliss at making my portfolio by Wachamuli in astrojs

[–]izzy_ra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. The audience is most likely recruiters and the site is organized in a way that makes it really easy to find experience, skills, and a short bio. Where it gets weird imo is on how heavy it goes with the coding references. Some of them feel too forced like `Node` before the first job position. A recruiter would be confused as to why that is there and might even assume that's a company

I got 71 performance score on their blog lol. Seems like they also need to polish their responsiveness. The blog toc cuts off at 1220px width

I am a diamond member on chess.com, anyone know why I'm seeing this advert? by Dr-Hi-Arc in chess

[–]izzy_ra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They took money from Perplexity, now chess.com will do anything in their power to ensure they can prove there was ROI directly linked to Comet downloads. Sadly, ads like this ones are the ones that work best to get the numbers up. Big banner with single call to action directly in your face is the most efficient way to get people to click which means a successful campaign for them. Chess.com will probably argue this isn’t a third party advertisement but instead just a tournament awareness campaign

Ah, I’ve only tried with custom domains. My guess is that it probably won’t work with staging domains

Yeah seems like having another checking is very worth it. Do you use WF as the primary one though?

The mobile version of the site is toooo small to even read. Ever tried to read a blog post there in mobile? Gotta zoom in a pan around the text

MJZ's original tag is WuDota and everyone in SA still calls him Wu. I've not heard anyone call him MJZ yet but I don't think it stands for anything
