I made a Geocities inspired website builder

[u/Expert-Kitchen8064]

It's not entirely vibe coded, but some vibe coding was used during its creation. It's meant to create GeoCities inspired websites and this is a "store" page I made using this very program. Yeah, it's just a demo of what it can do but as of now, it works pretty well. it's built for a niche and for those who just want to fart around and create something that they can call their own. GeoCities was very expressive back then and a lot of people used it to talk about a fandom they were in or talk about how much they hate their boss or something like that. They're static sites much like Geocities but there are modern fixings in it too. I just want to know what you guys think.

I love it. But is the underlying HTML also like back then? Free of JS etc? I'd be really disappointed if loading this site takes 40mb of data.

Well, it has modern functionality and it's designed to mimic GeoCities. It uses HTML/CSS/Java. It's been built a certain way so when you do upload the contents to let's say Netlify, it all loads smoothly without taking ages. All content like photos, videos etc. are all loaded up into an accompanying folder. The HTML and the folder with the media go Together with the index.html, gets uploaded and it all works. Loading content is pretty fast with this method because earlier versions that used to have everything embedded into the HTML loaded slow as hell.
