The Arrival of the Web 3.0
What is Web 3.0? That’s a good question! And I’m pretty sure I won’t be able to answer it in this essay. Yet, I’ll try my very best to get closer to the answer. There exist several definitions of Web 3.0, none of which can be considered definite. A very general one describes it as… Continue reading The Arrival of the Web 3.0
Sparkle up Your Website ✨
Recently, for one of my current projects, I was looking for a jQuery plug-in that adds a sparkle effect to DOM elements. However, I couldn't find any that suited my needs.

I recently stumbled upon motherfuckingwebsite.com, which is the most pragmatic and minimalistic approach to website creation I've seen so far (except for plain TXT files, of course).
