Show HN: Terminal-Style Portfolio on the Internet

[kuberwastaken]

Posted about this last year, since then learned a lot, changed a lot and can still say it's the best Terminal-Style Portfolio Website on The Internet

Congrats on making it work pretty much flawlessly on mobile, it's kinda rare for terminal-themed sites. It was pretty fun to navigate around, too =)

One (I think?) bug report and one suggestion:

- bug: can't get past the 5th project on mobile, whole screen just go black and I have to reload the page. - suggestion: maybe make cd ~ or something like that bring the user back to the actual initial state, with the login banner and stuff. Just running clear results in an empty shell, and the user has to remember to run help again.

P.S.: I ran the secret command. You son of a gun XD

P.P.S.: Two suggestions, actually: display your CV with pdfjs or something, or make an HTML version. It's annoying to have to download files.

Update: Fix for mobile crash should be shipped!

Not sure about the PDF thing (yet) because it's only that way on firefox based browsers (I think) with a rather feature rich display on chromimum Will update :)

[kuberwastaken]

No way I never saw it broken on mobile!? Just noticed it!! Will fix it ASAP thank you so much for the compliments :)

Hey, I also have one! It’s been running for about 10 years, though.

Reminds me that I need to update it.

Note, please do not click on my face repeatedly. It does not like that.

I still want to make a telnet version of it, though. Could be a fun project.

[kuberwastaken]

SO COOL!!! Might end up copying the unacceptable easter egg, so fun :)

[IdontKnowRust]

I guess it would be cool if you had choose common linux commands like ls, whoami, a script with meaningful name to run and print your curriculum instead of redirecting to linkedin with li

[kuberwastaken]

I had that earlier, most feedback I got was that it was un-navigatable for non-technical folks, this was the middle ground I could find haha

[ash_091]

Browsing past project 5 in the portfolio leads to a plain black page which needs a refresh to recover from.

[kuberwastaken]

Update: Shipped the fix! Should work now

[kuberwastaken]

wait what? haha that has never happened on any device I've used - would love a bit more idea on the platform you're on + how you encountered it

The animations ruin the illusion for me. terminals sequentially print output. This, things just kinda appear...

[kuberwastaken]

After trying out CLI tools and stuff like copilot, claude code - I can't hear someone say terminals can't have cool animated visuals :P

[marginalia_nu]

Terminals haven't sequentially printed output since the 1980s, and even then only in some circumstances.

PS: Try out "SECRET"

[lstodd]

Very good.

I you could get rid of https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=JetBrains+Mono:wght... dependency and cut down apple-touch-icon.png it would be perfect.

[kuberwastaken]

Great suggestions, will ship!

rm -rf / does not work, slightly disappointed

[kuberwastaken]

I've fixed my grave mistake should be live (and fun, honestly)

[kuberwastaken]

I hate myself for this, will be fixed by today
