Day 1: The Beginning

Every day, for the next 50 days, I will be working on a web experiment.

I have a bunch of web app ideas that have been collecting dust (which doesn't do anybody any good), so I'm going to start to make them happen:

• Wikipedia Speedrun Wordle/GeoGuessr
• Flatline: web tech heartbeat monitoring
• Potential frozen pipe notification service
• An alarm clock that charges you money every time you hit snooze
• Rate my Guardian (Destiny)
• Podcast Player w/ AI or Crowdsourced ad skips

This project is modeled on the 100 Days of Making course at ITP, and is guided by my colleague Paula Ceballos.

I'll spend at least 30-45 minutes each day, and I'll make an attempt with each experiment to try a tool or technique I don't have experience with (or haven't used in a while), like:

• Svelte & SvelteKit
• Astro
• Vite/ESBuild/Snowpack
• WebAR
• Three.js

There will be some days that aren't dedicated to a specific experiment. For example, today I resurrected this blog and made graphics for the featured images. I'll also need to fix up my dev tooling (ESLint & Prettier), and figure out hosting for all of these site.

Most importantly, I will document what I do every day, and post it to this blog.
