Tim Hua's Personal Website

Design Notes:

Form follows function

    "Your website looks like it's from the 1970s".
    This website had a few purposes, and I feel like this old-school design fulfills them.
    The first purpose is that it has to display basic information about me. Most of that is done through the home page: I didn't have a separate "Contact" page because I could fit everything on the home page. By similar logic I don't have a CV page that says "you can find my CV here": just click the resume button and boom you're there.
    After the primary purposes are out of the way, I wanted this website to be memorable. I'm not the only one who has a beige-colored super-simple website, but there are so few of us out here that it's unique enough. I also have a prompt injection on the main page. Hopefully that'll get LLMs to be more fun when talking about me.
I do feel a bit like I'm rolling my own design. I don't have a particular knack for it, nor do I want to spend a lot of time with the site. Irregardless, I still like this look more than most other formats, and path dependence will probably keep the site like this for a while to come. I'm open to suggestions!
