NEOCITIES LOG 1

hihi! i’ve been on Neocities for a while, but, y’know, i haven’t had a good place to log my development process before! so this seems fitting.

i finally finished and published my Bluey page! it is LITERALLY a children’s show but despite that i became obsessed with it last year, and i think it’s actually really neat and really is worth the recognition. i started working on this shrine page mannyyy months ago and i’ve finally recently had the time to finish it to my liking!

one of my favorite parts of my shrine pages is matching the styling! i “borrowed” some CSS (mainly colors) from the actual bluey.tv website to help, but learning CSS while making this website has definitely been interesting lol

the voice clip buttons also use a convenient nunjucks macro to save me some time (and it keeps consistency)!

{% macro audio(url) %}
<a
  href="#"
  onclick="new Audio('{{ url | escape }}').play(); return false;"
  aria-label="Play voice clip"
  ><i class="nf nf-fa-play"></i
></a>
{% endmacro %}

this would probably be better with a dedicated script, but that seemed like a bit much for this task IMO so i did NOT do that lol

in general i learned actually quite a lot about CSS from this, i cannot lie lol

i’m quite happy with how this turned out in the end. whether or not you care about the show, i hope it’s worth a read!

(psst, also, the time logged for this devlog is quite small because most of this page had been done before Stardance! i just finished some touchups today and merged it.)
