=== UNDER CONSTRUCTION ===

Hello World!

Welcome to my website! In the early 2000s when I was but a child, I was really into making websites. Writing HTML in Notepad and seeing it come to life on the actual internet was just about the coolest thing I could imagine. And you know what? It still is!

It's been years since I've done anything web-related, but it's a hobby I want to get back into. This website is my little pet project.

As it says at the top of the page, this page is still heavily under construction. None of the links at the top even work! (Except for the home page, I guess.) At the moment I'm still working out how I want stuff to work and how it's organized behind the scenes. Ultimately I want to code a little tool that can build a static HTML site from barebone assets. But before I can do that I'm gonna need some  C O N T E N T  to work with so I guess I should get started with that huh. Anyways, yeah... is PHP still relevant? I code with that because that's what the web hosting server I use uses, but web development has come a long way since, like, 2009.
