About

Who am I?

A 35 years old programmer named Axel Daguerre, living in Capbreton, France, almost on the beach. I am a generalist, an expert on nothing. I have some knowledge not directly related to programming: drawing, a bit of science and more.

Website

Purposes

The primary goal of this website is to provide links to the software programs I create, permitting me to share them.

Then in a secondary goal, I can share stuff I learn that I think can be useful for someone.

I will refrain myself from posting anything that I am not certain to be true, if I am not 100% sure, I will not publish it and wait until I am.

UX

The primary goal is readability and knowledge extraction. Which is why you will not see "modern" UX here. I refrain myself when a new feature will sacrifice it. Because of that, performance is important, so I implement all the simple ways to make it fast (embedded fonts, use of cache, CSS inside the HTML, avoiding serving large data, and fast UX).

Nuances

I am not a native speaker, which means my writing is not sophisticated nor perfect, but I plan to improve it quite a bit in the future.

How its built

90% of the website was created thanks to my IDK markup and HTML parser (not uploaded yet). I want everything automated, so most web pages are similar.

How to use it

All webpages have a raw link that directs to the IDK document that created the HTML page in its pure form. From there, a simple click permits you to select the entire text. In addition, details about the document are readable: related links, creation date, categories and more. All links have been tested on the last build, which builds the entire documents on the website, which means that if a link is not stated as broken, it will work.

State

The UX is still in development, I plan to make experiments with original features.

Downloads

Programs with .exe extensions do not have certification (it costs money), which means the browser will warn you when you download them. If you are not ok with that, you may not want to download them; there is currently no way for me to prove that I am a trustworthy person.

Work in progress

Several features is planned for this website:

1. 1.Source code interface (ressembling Github).
2. 2.A vault space in which someone will be able to search in. Inside will reside all the quick notes I take everyday, it can be really anything, cool video, articles to read, useful softwares and more.
3. 3.Comments possible on articles.
4. 4.IDK interactive interface in which someone will be able to write in IDK file format and see the rendering in HTML in real time.
5. 5.A dark theme.
6. 6.Add shortcuts. (id est close all UI windows).
7. 7.Enhance visuals, like highlighting text on relevant interactions or return to the exact location of the previous web page.
