Posted about this last year, since then learned a lot, changed a lot and can still say it's the best Terminal-Style Portfolio Website on The Internet

Congrats on making it work pretty much flawlessly on mobile, it's kinda rare for terminal-themed sites. It was pretty fun to navigate around, too =)

One (I think?) bug report and one suggestion:

- bug: can't get past the 5th project on mobile, whole screen just go black and I have to reload the page. - suggestion: maybe make cd ~ or something like that bring the user back to the actual initial state, with the login banner and stuff. Just running clear results in an empty shell, and the user has to remember to run help again.

P.S.: I ran the secret command. You son of a gun XD

P.P.S.: Two suggestions, actually: display your CV with pdfjs or something, or make an HTML version. It's annoying to have to download files.

Hey, I also have one! It’s been running for about 10 years, though.

Reminds me that I need to update it.

Note, please do not click on my face repeatedly. It does not like that.

I still want to make a telnet version of it, though. Could be a fun project.

SO COOL!!! Might end up copying the unacceptable easter egg, so fun :)

Easter eggs make it all worth while. :) There’s more, but might need random clicking (or just a plain old inspection of the source).

But your page has inspired me to go play with it some more and add stuff. Thanks for sharing.

Browsing past project 5 in the portfolio leads to a plain black page which needs a refresh to recover from.

wait what? haha that has never happened on any device I've used - would love a bit more idea on the platform you're on + how you encountered it

Same thing on Firefox 150.0a1 (Build #2016146623), I've sent you an email with the error I'm geting.

I guess it would be cool if you had choose common linux commands like ls, whoami, a script with meaningful name to run and print your curriculum instead of redirecting to linkedin with li

I had that earlier, most feedback I got was that it was un-navigatable for non-technical folks, this was the middle ground I could find haha

The animations ruin the illusion for me. terminals sequentially print output. This, things just kinda appear...

After trying out CLI tools and stuff like copilot, claude code - I can't hear someone say terminals can't have cool animated visuals :P

Terminals haven't sequentially printed output since the 1980s, and even then only in some circumstances.

Very good.

I you could get rid of https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=JetBrains+Mono:wght... dependency and cut down apple-touch-icon.png it would be perfect.
