A New UI Upgrade to My Website ❤️🩹
How I Started the Web?
I have several websites running right now that were created by me over 7-8 Websites are live right now. That includes memorable websites such as Dav Vidyarthi which I created for my school memories and all, and a chat website that I really like, a game website, and several websites for my friends and all. But by far the best creation by me is my own website 'arnavchauhan.in'. I really love it. I created it very basic initially like a hero section, some of my photos and all, then I added a Links section in which I shared all my social media links and mail and everything. Then I added a Blog area and wrote my first blog on 25th April. Everything was smooth and good but for me everything is like a gem the more you polish, the better it gets. So I did several UI changes like a full dark background and it was there for several days or months. Then I thought it was very empty but again I prefer dark theme. So I had to add something, thus I added stars, like little white ones. They were good and I used them for a week but then after seeing it for a few times I came to the conclusion that it is good but it is very static and overall not very nice. So I added a glow type effect and if we scroll the stars move. So I added them and it actually was a really great idea. I kept it for over a month and it was nice!
The Big Upgrades
I started my web because I want to showcase my work and whenever someone visits my website the first impression is the UI and overall look. Over the period of time I refined it and made it very beautiful and I fucking love it. There were some issues like photos were not loading in the Gallery section. It was not a web or host issue, it was a code problem. My website is mainly in TypeScript, so I modified the code in the config section then it was good to go. However, the old Star Field UI was kind of boring so today, 2nd July, I made some big changes. I added some colors like purple and blue-ish type. It was good but again it felt empty so I added a mesh-type design which I really love. I saw that somewhere, not exactly like this but I got inspiration from huly.io. It is a fucking $100,000 USD website which is approx 1 Cr and I made my website for free except hosting and domain. So I still think I made a really good design. Only on PC/Laptop can anyone feel the real web. That connecting web thing took the most amount of time to make, but overall I am happy for now! For a few months I am not touching the UI. It is smooth, no lag and it's nice. Maybe in the future I will add more sections I am planning but the UI for the time being is great.
That's it for today!!! Arnav Chauhan, signing off.
