Den's Projects

just a centralized place for the projects that i'm working on

What is this, and why is it here?

This is just a reference and portfolio page that I made for me, not really for the general public. You're welcome to take a look, I have nothing to hide. Just remember that I made this for me, not for you. Please keep the hate statements to yourself.

It isn't the 1990s any more.

The modern browser supports a broad range of functionality for a rich interactive experience. In the past, we needed Flash in order to implement full-featured interfaces. Flash is dead and gone, but that's OK, because Javascript and CSS have caught up. We can achieve the same experience with the combination of HTML, CSS, and Javascript.

Simple is better.

Many people rely on frameworks to achieve these results, but that approach is usually unnecessarily bulky. We should use native code when it can do the job just as well. Simple is elegant.

Standards-compliant code is future-proof.

With some knowledge of modern web standards, we can realize the broad functionality of modern web browsers and implement the full potential of web standards using native code. The user experience and functionality is just as good, and by getting back to the basics, not only can we be efficient and nimble, but our code is also evergreen.
