Hello, universe

#meta#javascript

The old version of this site was a tiny arcade cabinet with a playable Pac-Man. I loved it, but it was a very elaborate way of saying almost nothing about me.

So I've swapped the cabinet for a galaxy. There are planets, a spiral galaxy, comets, and a starfield that drifts with your mouse and your scrolling. It is wildly more JavaScript than a personal site needs, which is exactly the point.

What's here

  • An about section: who I am and what I work on
  • My projects, orbiting a small sun
  • This blog, for notes on building things

Things to try

  1. Move your mouse and watch the sky shift
  2. Hover the planets in the projects section
  3. Scroll slowly and watch the parallax
  4. Use the engage hyperspace link in the footer

If you know the Konami code, you already know what to do.

How the blog works

Posts are plain Markdown files with a bit of front matter. There's no database and no CMS:
