<h1><hr>FAQ</h1>
|
|
<p>Some questions that, nobody has ever <em>actually</em> asked, but I'm gonna act like they have because its fun!</p>
|
|
<div class="row container-fluid fadediv" style="margin: auto;">
|
|
<h2><hr>How?</h2>
|
|
<p>Well, believe it or not, there's no javascript involved!!!! :D<br><span style="color: darkgray; font-size: 0.9rem;">Or well no client side javascript anyway...</span></p>
|
|
<p>Using a wonderful program <a>called lanyard</a>, my website is connected to a websocket that sends a signal every time my discord updates (E.G. My status changes... or I open a game...)</p>
|
|
<p>Then, it uses the new info to dynamically generate the main page!<br>The more technically advanced of you can check it out on Codeberg, but be warned, it's coded <b>TERRIBLY.</b> I didn't really wanna use a library so i coded it all myself, and there's no actual system, just pure chaos :/</p>
|
|
<h2><hr>Why?</h2>
|
|
<p>Actually, i'm not really sure<br>
|
|
Originally I think this site started out because I saw people had these cool "carrd" sites and stuff
|
|
in their bio and wanted to make something close to carrd but made by myself.</p>
|
|
<p>Nowadays, though, this site is used more as a learning opportunity!
|
|
I try to do new, experimental, wacky things here, and use them in projects later.</p>
|
|
<p>For example, my Youtube Converter, Univerter, I was only able to make because I already learnt how to make
|
|
dynamically generated HTML. (Univerter, as I am writing this, has no dynamically generated HTML, but it used to!)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2><hr>How does it update?</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
I use a site called railway for hosting, which connects to a github repository, which is synced with a codeberg repository. The github repo is only there because, <em>annoyingly</em>, Railway only supports docker and Github.
|
|
<br>
|
|
The main site (violets-purgatory.dev) updates with the origin branch, while the beta site (beta.violets-purgatory.dev) updates with the dev branch. I originally wanted to use dev as the subdomain for the sake of consistancy, but, dev.violets-purgatory.dev just doesn't really roll off the tongue...
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2><hr>Why do you (hate/never use) Javascript?</h2>
|
|
<p>Because its more fun :D Inevitably, I would put something more informative here, like "for the sake of compatibility" which, don't get me wrong, a huge part of it is so that people who disable javascript can use my site, but also, if you've seen my CSS it should be clear I don't try to be the <em>most</em> backwards compatible.</p>
