Intentional Thoughts

A personal website built to share family celebrations: a small, living project that grows a section at a time.

The Goal

Give my family a dedicated place to share and revisit celebrations together: a site that's personal rather than public-facing, built and maintained the same way I'd build for a client, but for people I love.

How It's Built

  • Designed the site architecture
  • Directed AI-assisted development,
  • Manage hosting and domain configuration directly
  • Customized the implementation
  • Tested functionality
  • Built a responsive layout that holds up across phones, tablets, and desktop
  • Add new sections as new occasions come up. Most recently, a page planned around the 4th of July got bumped for a trip to New York instead

Technologies

  • HTML/CSS/JS
  • Responsive Design
  • Hosting & DNS

What I Learned

That "done" is relative. This site is intentionally never finished. It's taught me to build in a way that makes adding a new page later easy, not just launching once and walking away.
