About Me
Fun fact: I like cats.
I'm Jane, don't think we've met, but let me share some stuff about me since I assume that's what you're here to know.
Projects
Random stuff I've picked up and may or may not have finished...
Let's start with the obvious; this website. Designed and drawn by yours truly, built with HTML/CSS/JS, I did have a Flask/Jinja version but I realized I can't host that on GH pages which kind of sucks. This is actually personal website 2.0 already, the first one was a simpler HTML/CSS/JS site that I built in 2023, it's technically the same repo. I think I've grown more as a developer and person, and my perspectives on careers has changed so much, and had the opportunity to enrich myself with so many fresh ideas that the previous site no longer reflected my personality.
