Acknowledgements

This project would not have been possible if not for the following people:

Thank you to Samson Zhang for always encouraging me to pursue my webdev projects.

Thank you to Emma and Colleen for beta testing. This website would not be the same without your valuable feedback.

The header on

Part 2
was inspired by a video by 3Blue1Brown about the Fourier series.

Thank you to Ray, Carrie, Sophia, and Amy for hyping me up, providing emotional support which kept me motivated to make this website better.

Thank you to all the webdev projects I've seen in the past that expanded my worldview on what is possible to do with webdev, breathing inspiration to execute ideas I'd otherwise dismiss as crazy. These include but are not limited to: Nicky Case's project Trust, Madhav Malhotra's 2021 reflection, and Jez Swanson's awesome visual explainer of Fourier transforms.

The music used was Clean Water Upon You by Borrtex.
