nickyblanch.xyz

nickyblanch.xyz is the domain name of this site, which is one of my ongoing projects. By creating this site, I am learning HTML, css, and JavaScript in a hands on manner. Every line of code that allows this site to run was handwritten by me, mostly between 11/4/20 and 11/6/20.

So far, I have found HTML to be pleasantly forgiving. Because I mostly use C++ for my engineering coursework, I am accustomed to every syntax error causing the compiler to fail. I like that incorrect HTML syntax will simply do nothing rather than causing the whole program to crash. The css has likewise been fairly forgiving.

Next, I plan to implement some JavaScript functionality; one of my future projects is designing a raspberry pi or Arduino based weather station that can send weather data to this site. Come back in a few months for an update...
