Credits

This website is made by me. However, various inspirations and resources from others were used while making this website.

Tools Used

Hosting

This website is hosted via Neocities. It's also hosted on Nekoweb as a site mirror. Sourcehut Pages is also used for hosting the web games I develop.

Framework

This website is built using SvelteKit. Once I finish what I need to in the source code, I build this website using the static adapter, which creates a "build" directory that contains the website assets used for deployment. On Neocities, I publish the contents of the "build" directory using the Neocities' command line tool. On Nekoweb, I put the files of the "build" directory into a ZIP file, and use the website's importing ZIP feature to upload my changes.

Inspiration

Other Websites

Websites that I have taken inspiration from was Solinus' Website and Frutiger Aero, also on Neocities. These two websites have pointed me in the right direction. Frutiger Aero is kind of the aesthetic I wanted to pull off, flat and minimal design rarely to be seen. Thank you to Solinus and Kantraa for their websites. If you also want to try and do the same, there's also tutorials on their website.

References

Besides just the aesthetic of Frutiger Aero, I particularly took inspiration from the UI of 2000s operating systems. In particular, Microsoft Windows 7 (I guess it's pretty obvious with the borders, huh?) and early Mac OS X. I used screenshots from the Microsoft and Mac OS X wikis as inspiration for some of the designs. Thanks to contributors for the high-quality images! I also think some blood from pre-7 iOS and Elementary OS falls under here too. Things like images being "cut out" to show more stuff underneath.

Checking out websites on Web Design Museum and the Wayback Machine has been helpful, too.
