Changelog

Versioned

v0.4

2026·10·12 · Latest

  • Added

    A hidden CTF — 5 flags across the site

    Flags hidden in the source, robots.txt, the console, the footer and the terminal. Submissions are checked server-side against SHA-256 hashes, with per-IP rate limiting and a leaderboard.

  • Added

    Security headers + security.txt

    Strict CSP with no inline scripts allowed (one hashed exception), HSTS, frame blocking, nosniff, a tight Permissions-Policy and a /.well-known/security.txt.

  • Added

    Case studies, writeups, command palette, 404

    Deep-dive pages for the lyrics display and ClassSec, a writeups section, a Ctrl/⌘ K palette that can also ask the AI terminal, and a custom 404.

  • Changed

    Faster — everything self-hosted

    Fonts and smooth scrolling now load from this site, not third-party CDNs. Added link previews, favicons and a sitemap.

v0.3

2026·10·12

  • Changed

    Full redesign — new visual system

    Rebuilt every page on one shared design system: Geist + Instrument Serif type, a warm amber accent, calmer motion and a proper light theme. Dropped Tailwind CDN for a single lightweight stylesheet.

  • Added

    Selected work on the homepage

    Lyrics display, School ERP, SnoozeSOC and the AI terminal now sit front and centre.

  • Fixed

    Vault entries are now HTML-escaped

    Titles, artists and image URLs are escaped before rendering, so a bad entry can't inject markup.

v0.2

2026·04·10

  • Added

    AI terminal page

    Replaced the static command-based terminal with a fully AI-powered one. Type anything and get real replies from my AI clone, with conversation context, follow-up suggestions and a live status bar.

  • Changed

    Terminal background matched to site theme

    Same background as the rest of the site for a consistent identity across pages.

  • Changed

    Unified navigation

    One nav style across Terminal, Work and Vault.

  • Changed

    Goals updated to 2026

    All "2025 goals" references updated across the AI terminal prompt and quick-access chips.

  • Added

    Skill matrix

    Honest skill levels across dev, security and music.

  • Added

    Hardware rig panel

    Spec sheet for the current machine.

  • Changed

    Footer — Discord removed, email added

    Replaced Discord with a direct email link.

v0.1

2026·03·29

  • Added

    First live version

    Initial deploy with a dark/light theme system.

  • Added

    Navigation, Vault and theme toggle

    Fixed top nav with blur and a sun/moon theme switch.

  • Added

    Tool stack & active projects

    Cybersecurity and acoustic tool cards, plus four project cards with real images.

  • Added

    Social footer

    Instagram, GitHub and contact links.
