These were originally planned, but it became complicated to implement and integrate. The core concept of the website is that there was no navigation bar, so I wasn't sure how navigation would work. Another thing is that this website was originally meant to be a long single page, and of course I wouldn't know how to implement that either. As you can see I had pretty ambitious plans for this site in 2021, but they ended up being canned.

# What's different with this new website?
-This new website pretty much combined stuff that worked in the past. Things like the navbar, cards (from Projects), and the icons in the homepage. There is some added in this that was not in past websites, like the contacts page which was pretty much the solution of the icons being crowded during the 2021 website, and a guestbook, it is basically feedback on my website, you can use it to comment on my blogs, or send me nice messages.

# Why do you continue with creating a website, why don't you just use a website builder?
The reason is that this is a **personal website**, I get to create things myself and not depend on a third party to do stuff for me. I want to write my own theme, and entire infrastructure myself without needing to use a bloated builder that would add unnecessary junk and javascript to the site. I have always wanted to make my own site, and I think I have done so, which fulfills my childhood dream to create my own website.
