It's definitely totally fine to build these things for fun, but with a landing page like this, it seems like the author built it for some purpose beyond that, otherwise I don't see the point in presenting it in this form.

If the author wanted to learn _and_ get publicity, a blog post or at least including a "why" section that says "just for fun" on the landing page would seem suitable to me.

There probably is some interesting motivation for doing this, it's just not clear what it is.

You mean one of github's default landing pages for projects? http://i.imgur.com/nQgmrE5.png
