Hello Dev.to 👋
I bought malgamves.dev in the .dev bubble of early 2019 and it's been decaying in a pile of unused domains I own. Don't judge me..
So here it is folks..
✨Introducing malgamves.dev (very beta)✨
Now I know it's not perfect and that's why this is a pre-launch. wink
There's a few goals I have for improving the site aesthetically and accessibilty wise and I'll share them all as I go along. When there's only a few things to change, I'll officially launch it. cough cough
(As if launching personal sites is a thing)
At the moment, this is built with Vue.js and hosted with Netlify. As we go on I will add:
- Social media cards so that something nice pops up when you share a link of the site
- A fully functional blog
- My advocate work and funcky projects I built
- Annd? I have no idea.. leave some suggestions for cool features in the comments? Thanks 💖
To be honest, I'm trying to learn as much I can about making modern websites, particularly those built with popular frontend frameworks more accessible. I just started out with this and if you have no idea what accessibility is, I highly recommend checking out the accessibily project and this really informative video
Protip (newbie tip tbh)
Accessibility == a11y (pronouced ally)
The more I read about it, the more I feel more developers need to not just talk about it but consider making thier sites more accessible. I truly want to be someone who practices what I preach! Do add your a11y tips and resources below and....
Till the next post 💖
