work on the whitespace - make consistent vertical margins between elements: beginning of the white section seems a bit too cluttered.
Also try to use a bit different color palette - that blue color looks like a bit CSS's default `blue` built-in color - try something more unusual! :)
good luck!
My DeusEx-game-inspired personal website (love the game, especially from the design side so decided to take an inspiration from it)
Will soon release tool I've used to generate this website (yes, another static site generator ;) )
Latest Deus Ex game fans should recognize what was my source of inspiration there ;)
Before that, I've been using ASUS Zenbook UX32LN - I think it was the best machine I've ever had (now my wife is using it, I wanted to try out Surface devices since I've fell in love with the design of that product line)
but exactly, when you spent decent amount of time at websites like bricklink you can complete sets for a fairly lower price than usual.
It's always a good idea to check the local online market platforms as well.
Why do I like it? Because I've literally built it by myself from scratch - starting on design (all the graphics, even the map in experience tab) to the static site generation tool that I use to manage content (will release it soon as my first truly open source project).
Btw. Any feedback will be highly appreciated.
But I can't.
[edit]
Since somebody downvoted my previous form of comment (probably because of lack of constructive opinion) I'll fix it now:
Calling other programmers noobs doesn't make you a better person by any means.
On one side you're saying that Vue.js is that easy to learn so there's lots of noobs using it, but on the other side you're saying that you need constantly google/look into to docs for help.
Vue documentation is the best introduction to the tool I've ever encountered. Same for the rest of the docs for the Vue's ecosystem - they're written in consistent form, so you can just simply 'jump in' and learn progressively. Even templating language looks like already familiar good old HTML. I was prepared to build production-ready application after a week of messing around with Vue & its documentation.
I can't tell same much good words about React, since after spending a month with it I couldn't figure out how to solve some basic edge-cases (like finding proper way to style components - are you kidding me, React is like 3+ years old, used by thousands of developers and people are still arguing about proper way of styling its components? In Vue you just put it into `<style>` block of Single File Component, or serve generic ones in the global stylesheet file and that's it, simple as that.)
But I think it's just a matter of personal preferences - Vue just suit me better, while React doesn't. I don't like react personally - but I do respect the people who created it and these who uses it on daily basis. Period.
Every developer can choose hers/his tools that suits best, but calling someone because of that a noob is... just unprofessional.
I will take an opportunity and share here a link to one of my notes about the related topic: 'If Vue.js is worth a shot?': https://lukaszkups.net/notes/is-vuejs-worth-a-shot/
enjoy ;)
Same for twitter - despite the fact I'm now slowly move into joining some weekly emails about the stuff I'm intersted in I still use twitter as a my main source of news about front-end tooling / programming / entrepreneur / design stuff.
Caring about politics is a total waste of time and energy - in my opinion it's just better to turn these resources into e.g. earning more money than e.g. thinking how much politicians are "stealing" it from us - I think that's the main reason why people are so angry these days and live unhappy lifes
I was working linux for these years on it, but switched recently to Windows 10 + Microsoft's linux subsystem thingie - it works pretty nice - once this machine will totally break I think I'll consider one of Surface Books since the OS is not a problem for me anymore.
Why I work on it? It's fast (SSD + i7 (even if it's an outdated model) + 12GB of RAM) makes it really reliable for fullstack development. Besides that, 13" Screen is enough for me, makes it pretty mobile machine.
