Now you can bundle your JS apps into a standalone executable with a single command:

tsdown --exe

A screenshot of ASCII art spelling out in large letters "NLB/9", followed by the text "Next level business machine rev 9. Login? (y)" and a cursor prompt. The letters are cyan on a black background, slightly blurry/fuzzy due to the pink shadow on one side and the blue shadow on the other side.

I'm writing my jam game as a web game, using HTML/CSS/JS (React). I can't get over how effective this super lazy "CRT effect" is.

background: var(--black);
text-shadow:
-2px 0px 2px var(--pink),
2px 0px 2px var(--darker-cyan);
color: var(--cyan);

That's it!

Experimenting with:
β€’ OKLCH color blending
β€’ CSS 3D perspective
β€’ backdrop-filter glass
β€’ sine-based wave staggering
β€’ pointer inertia

Inspired by Ordinary Folk’s motion work.
Built in vanilla HTML/CSS/JS.

i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript)

you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS

Almost 3 years since editable.website won 2nd place at @sveltesociety.dev SvelteHack.

Since then, I’ve been busy turning this from a prototype into something solid.

A way to build CMS-free, in-place editable websites using only Svelte.

This is v2. πŸ₯³

Reminds me of a small project I made for these kinds of controller layouts a while back -- might have saved me a bunch of time back then if this had existed!
