It's hand-crafted with TailwindCSS, vanilla HTML, and JS. I've worked on it for 2 months part-time. I was hoping it would get people's attention, and so it did. :)

The component split is done by hand in Figma with regular screenshots and cropping. I also used a plugin for skewing.

One nitpick: I dislike the tiny custom scroller.

IMO customizing scrollers is almost always a disservice to users.

I was just going to say this too. Site is wonderful except the scrollbar which was very very tiny and barely visible.
I made it expand on hover now.
I think it's still annoying. When reading, I often look at where the scrollbar is to get an idea of how much reading is left. Right now, the scrollbar is so thin that I have to waste time looking for it. On a 34" monitor, it's very annoying.
Fair enough!

I've expanded it by default on bigger screens now. :)

A LOT better!
Agree!

It's a single form-over-function thing that I could not resist not to add. :)

I’m not sure why but non of the images are animating for me on iPhone 15 plus
The only reason I can think of is "Low power mode".
