Imagine you have a giant digital toy box. Inside, you keep the cool things you've built, the stories you've written, and a diary of all the interesting things you've learned. Fezcodex is that toy box. It is a special website that works like a personal museum on the internet. It is not just a boring page; it has moving parts, secret "Easter eggs," and little mini-apps like a sound mixer and a stopwatch.

• Digital Garden: A place where blog posts and "logs" (mini-diaries about books, movies, or games) grow.
• Project Archives: A showcase of all the coding experiments and software I've built.
• Mini-Apps: Built-in tools like an Atmosphere Mixer (for focus sounds), a Typing Tester, and a Stopwatch.
• Visual Magic: You can change how the whole site looks using the "Visual Matrix" in Settings—make it look like an old computer, a blueprint, or even a comic book.
• Achievements: Just like a video game, you get little trophies for exploring the site and finding hidden things.

• React and Tailwind CSS: These are the main building blocks that make the site work and look professional.
• Framer Motion: This is the tool that makes everything move smoothly and animate.
• Markdown and PIML: These are special ways of writing text so the computer knows how to turn them into beautiful pages.
• Local Storage: The site remembers your settings and trophies right in your own browser, so it does not need a large database.

• src/components/: The small parts (like buttons and cards) used to build pages.
• src/pages/: The main areas of the house (Home, Blog, Settings, Apps).
• public/: This is the pantry where all the actual content (text files for posts, images, and sounds) is stored.
• scripts/: Helper programs that help build the sitemap and RSS feeds.

Make sure you have Node.js installed on your computer.

git clone https://github.com/fezcode/fezcode.github.io.git
cd fezcode.github.io

npm install

npm start

This will open the site at http://localhost:3000.

This project uses BrowserRouter for clean URLs (e.g., /apps/markdown-table-formatter) instead of hash-based URLs (/#/apps/...).

To support this on GitHub Pages (which is a static file host), we use react-snap to pre-render all routes into static HTML files during the build process.

• Pre-rendering: react-snap crawls the application and generates a directory structure that matches the routes (e.g., build/apps/markdown-table-formatter/index.html). This allows GitHub Pages to serve the correct file for each route directly.
• SEO: This approach ensures that every page has unique, server-side rendered metadata (title, description, open graph tags) for social media previews and search engines.
• Fallback: A 404.html is generated to handle unknown routes.

The standard npm run deploy command handles the build, pre-rendering, and deployment to GitHub Pages automatically.

npm run deploy

• Contributing: Please read our CONTRIBUTING.md for guidelines on commit messages and content updates.
• Styling: We use Tailwind. Keep it Brutalist yet polished.
• Icons: We use @phosphor-icons/react. Always use the ones ending in Icon (for example, CpuIcon).
• Logic: Keep it simple. Use Context for global settings like Visual Effects and Animations.
