April O’Neil Webpage💚💛
Hey all! So I’ve been taking Web Development in college, and my final project for this course was to code a kinda resume webpage for a character so I chose Rise April! I was quite happy with how it’s looking so far so decided to share it.
Let me know what you think :)
Oh yea, I made a neocities page! It’s still a work in progress but I’ve gotten to the point where I’m happy to share it!

ON THE GRIND
I'm currently relearning HTML to
a) make my own website
b) have the ability to edit my blog and other profiles that allow for html customization
and most importantly
c) to be as cool as the person that sat in front of me in one of my art lectures who had made their entire canvas page set with a very cool 2000's black and red theme
yesss :D
neocities guide - why you should build your own html website
do you miss the charm of the 90s/00s web where sites had actual personality instead of the same minimalistic theme? are you feeling drained by social media and the constant corporate monopoly of your data and time? do you want to be excited about the internet again? try neocities!!
what is neocities?
neocities is a free hosting website that lets you build your own html website from scratch, with total creative control. in their own words: "we are tired of living in an online world where people are isolated from each other on boring, generic social networks that don't let us truly express ourselves. it's time we took back our personalities from these sterilized, lifeless, monetized, data mined, monitored addiction machines and let our creativity flourish again."
why should I make my own website?
web3 has been overtaken by capitalism & conformity. websites that once were meant to be fun online social spaces now exist solely to steal your data and sell you things. it sucks!! building a personal site is a great way to express yourself and take control of your online experience.
what would I even put on a website?
the best part about making your own site is that you can do literally whatever the hell you want! focus on a specific subject or make it a wild collection of all your interests. share your art! make a shrine for one of your interests! post a picture of every bird you see when you step outside! make a collection of your favorite blinkies! the world is your oyster !! here are some cool example sites to inspire you: recently updated neocities sites | it can be fun to just look through these and browse people's content! space bar | local interstellar dive bar creature feature | halloween & monsters big gulp supreme peanutbuttaz | personal site dragodiluna linwood | personal site patho grove | personal site

Ahhh my first code! I hope you enjoy it as much as I am enjoying it!
Used one of @aurumcodes PT codes as a basis of how to code the elements, but tried to figure out different things without using the complete code! If it bears too much semblance to their codes, I'll take it down immediately!
