Taking inspiration from an earlier era in the internet's history, escher.wtf serves as my personal blog and homepage. Initially prototyped in Sketch, designing this website was a fun challenge in maintaining a strict visual identity across a range of content types. Outside of posts to my blog, this site also plays host to my collection of album reviews, links to friends' pages, and a guestbook.
Developed in Next.js leveraging Payload CMS, this project was also a great opportunity to practice server-side-rendering and browser optimization. As it stands, almost every page of the website can be rendered without JavaScript, despite being completely written in React.
