I was really glad when I was shown this Neocities/retro website trend. Old HTML? Basic CSS? No complex things? No responsive code? No frameworks? I'm totally in.
I tried designing something retro point'n click-esque, with some icons and interaction, but I ended up focusing on my fave process: less worry, more chaos. So I just began coding things, adding divs, colors that I also use on my animations website, and it took some nice form and I like it!
Not having to have a headache due to all the rules and shenanigans modern products have is awesome, and it pulls me away from the daily routine to a fun, easy project.
