Posted about this last year, since then learned a lot, changed a lot and can still say it's the best Terminal-Style Portfolio Website on The Internet

Hey, I also have one! It’s been running for about 10 years, though.

Reminds me that I need to update it.

Note, please do not click on my face repeatedly. It does not like that.

I still want to make a telnet version of it, though. Could be a fun project.

Very good.

I you could get rid of https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=JetBrains+Mono:wght... dependency and cut down apple-touch-icon.png it would be perfect.

Browsing past project 5 in the portfolio leads to a plain black page which needs a refresh to recover from.

Congrats on making it work pretty much flawlessly on mobile, it's kinda rare for terminal-themed sites. It was pretty fun to navigate around, too =)

One (I think?) bug report and one suggestion:

- bug: can't get past the 5th project on mobile, whole screen just go black and I have to reload the page. - suggestion: maybe make cd ~ or something like that bring the user back to the actual initial state, with the login banner and stuff. Just running clear results in an empty shell, and the user has to remember to run help again.

P.S.: I ran the secret command. You son of a gun XD

P.P.S.: Two suggestions, actually: display your CV with pdfjs or something, or make an HTML version. It's annoying to have to download files.

I guess it would be cool if you had choose common linux commands like ls, whoami, a script with meaningful name to run and print your curriculum instead of redirecting to linkedin with li

The animations ruin the illusion for me. terminals sequentially print output. This, things just kinda appear...

PS: Try out "SECRET"

rm -rf / does not work, slightly disappointed
