Ask HN: Share your personal website

950 points by susam 5 months ago

Hello HN! I am putting together a community-maintained directory of personal websites at https://hnpwd.github.io/. More details about the project can be found in the README at https://github.com/hnpwd/hnpwd#readme.

As you can see, the directory currently has only a handful of entries. I need your help to grow it. If you have a personal website, I would be glad if you shared it here. If your website is hosted on a web space where you have full control over its design and content, and if it has been well received in past HN discussions, I might add it to the directory. Just drop a link in the comments. Please let me know if you do not want your website to be included in the directory.

Also, I intend this to be a community maintained resource, so if you would like to join the GitHub project as a maintainer, please let me know either here or via the IRC link in the README.

By the way, see also 'Ask HN: Could you share your personal blog here?' - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36575081 - July 2023 - (1014 points, 1940 comments). In this post, the scope is not restricted to blogs though. Any personal website is welcome, whether it is a blog, digital garden, personal wiki or something else entirely.

UPDATE: It is going to take a while to go through all the submissions and add them. If you'd like to help with the process, please send a PR directly to this project: https://github.com/hnpwd/hnpwd.

    I tried opening your site inside of your site and then one more inside that and it stoped. total recursions achieved 1, but man was it cool. Loved it

    • unsungNovelty 5 months ago

      I opened like 3-4 times one inside the other and it worked for me though.

        I got to 3, then opened one of his YouTube videos in the "bottom" browser. Nothing seemed to happen then the audio started playing and everything slowed to a crawl. After closing the tab the audio kept playing and my entire PC became unusable until I rebooted. I'm not even mad, I'm impressed!

        • p4bl0 5 months ago

          I got to seven on my laptop using Firefox, but then it was too painfully slow to try to open another one. It ran smoothly up to the fifth level tho!

  • akst 5 months ago

    I love this

    I made something like with a similar aesthetic a few years ago but themed after win95 (which seems to be hardly unique these days). But it had a secret gimmick where aspects of it were implemented with in terms of itself (mostly, file icons could be edited within app and you could see them update on the desktop).

    I had grand plans for it but they never eventuated.

    how did you make those animations on your main site?

    • simonsarris 5 months ago

      I did it all by hand in HTML canvas. I have spent a long time making such things for years. My day job is making a canvas-based Diagramming library so I have some practice.

      If you click on it the scene creates more objects by the way. And if you right-click and drag you can move them around.

    Love your garden! How big is your section? Or is this hypothetical?

    Do you keep geese?

    I noticed that tree sizes go to 200 if you put nonsense on the field (text emoticon etc).

    • simonsarris 5 months ago

      I have about 7 acres. I kept geese once but they were killed when they ran off with a local 5K that ran by my house and they followed. They were never found.

      I have kept ducks (meat) and chickens (eggs) at various times, but I ate all the ducks and I gave away the chickens just last month. Unfortunately free ranging chickens have been very destructive to my gardening, and I am trying to make the 2nd largest rose garden in NH, so that goal has priority.

      • lostlogin 5 months ago

        Wow.

        Also, what’s a 5k?

        • matkv 5 months ago

          I'm guessing they mean a 5 kilometer running race, those are usually called 5k.

wilkystyle 5 months ago

I got excited at the headline of this post because I love the idea of community maintained personal site directories. Was disappointed to get into the description and linked Git repository and learn that it's only for sites that have gotten some traction on hacker news before. Was hoping it would be a way to stumble upon potentially underrepresented content from folks in the hacker news community who don't normally get attention.

This is probably a "me" problem for assuming otherwise (you even have HN in your URL), but it's not what I expected from a post asking people to share their personal websites.

edit: judging by the number of personal website links posted here that do not meet that criteria, it appears I was not the only one with the wrong impression.

  • zahlman 5 months ago

    I mean, it makes sense to restrict outside submissions at least nominally, while being more lenient within the community, given that the project is community-focused.... but yes, I did feel a bit apprehensive when I looked at the repo after I'd already been added.

  • baubino 5 months ago

    OP should change it to be what most of us thought it would be. In case not, I’m adding this to favorites so I can continue checking out all the sites later.

    • susam 5 months ago

      Done: https://github.com/hnpwd/hnpwd.github.io/commit/e6a016f

      I mentioned in a sibling thread that this requirement was originally added out of caution, mainly to discourage spam submissions. It no longer seems necessary, and I was not entirely happy with it either, so I have removed it now. Thanks for the discussion here, which prompted me to drop the restrictive requirement.

  • susam 5 months ago

    > Was disappointed to get into the description and linked Git repository and learn that it's only for sites that have gotten some traction on hacker news before.

    Yes, I was not entirely happy with the restrictive wording either. The original requirement was added mainly out of concern about spam submissions (blogspam, AI-generated content and similar). But the quality of submissions has been surprisingly good and I am genuinely delighted by the number of interesting websites I have came across in the last few hours.

    So I have gone ahead and removed the overly restrictive criteria language.

    > Was hoping it would be a way to stumble upon potentially underrepresented content from folks in the hacker news community who don't normally get attention.

    Yes, that was exactly my intention as well. Thanks for raising this concern. It gave me the push to update the README and make the intent clearer.

    • wilkystyle 5 months ago

      Your original reasoning makes a lot of sense, and I wasn't even thinking about that aspect. Thanks for clarifying!

  • tslmy 5 months ago

    Suggestion:

    Everyone think of a number between 0~9, put it in a bracket (so that it's search-friendly), and add it to their post, e.g. "[7] check out my example.com".

    Readers of this thread are then encouraged to search for a random number between 0~9, search for it (e.g., "[5]") via browser, do a few "find next" (just to randomize), and then visit as many results as they enjoy.

  • sen 5 months ago

    TheOldNet runs a decent WebRing that still gets new sites added to it pretty regularly, and is almost always just personal websites/blogs. I quite like it (and my site is on it)

    https://webring.theoldnet.com

    There's also geekring.net that is similar, and a few others that are still actively updated.

    I still prefer WebRings for finding good personal sites, it has that old-web "exploration and discovery" type feeling that makes it actively satisfying to find new sites.

    What a coincidence to see this here - in these days I'm making my first NES emulator and I have your 6502 instruction set page permanently open.

    Thank you so much for your work.

  • araes 5 months ago

    Your Pet 2001 emulator's pretty cool, and seems much more capable and user friendly than a lot of the downloadable alternatives.

    Actually a bit of an issue, its so capable, I actually have difficulty justifying a downloadable alternative, even though I'd prefer to have a local copy due to the untrustworthiness of web apps over time.

    • masswerk 5 months ago

      Thank you! I can see that this may a bit of an issue. However, this being a simple webpage is what allows to quickly tinker with this and push a quick update, which is also how much of this has kept growing.

My personal website lives at https://pablo.rauzy.name/ since 2008. My previous personal website is not online anymore.

Some parts of it are in French, typically the teaching section, which is primarily aimed at my students.

My blog (in French) is at https://p4bl0.net/. It's a new version that's live since 2021 but this domain has been hosting my blog since 2006. I had a blog before that but the hosting service I used has long been dead.

  • p4bl0 5 months ago

    I see others have specified their tech stack.

    My blog runs on Dotclear (a very good open source PHP+MySQL blog engine) with a homemade theme.

    My website runs on a hand written static site generator made of a Makefile and Bash scripts relying on the xml2 and 2xml commands, and coreutils in between them (especially sed). Those are automatically executed by a Git hook on my server to update the website on push. It's been like this since the beginning so I have the full history of my website's version back up to 2008 (I'm not even sure GitHub Pages were a thing back then!). It's fun to sometimes go back and see how it looked like almost 20 years ago.

https://nindalf.com. I've written a few posts that have made it to HN [1].

I strongly oppose writing with LLMs and think it's more important than ever to write with our own words. If my writing is to be better than LLMs I need to hone it by writing more.

I'm proud of the website as well. I have used LLMs to assist with the UI dev. It has all 100s from PageSpeed. I've made it so it's easy to add pages within. All the books I've read in the last few years [1] and a minimalist gym tracker I use myself (any anyone can too!).

  • philangist 5 months ago

    One of my major goals for 2026 was zero LLM use for writing, however I've found it a bit hard at times because LLMs are exceptional for research. Oftentimes I find that in reading an explanation or report that ChatGPT gives me about a topic there will be small turns of phrase or even whole sentences that capture a concept way better than I can. I then feel obstinate not using a clearly superior option, so I'm curious if you've run into that tension and if so how you navigate it.

    • nindalf 5 months ago

      Honestly I don't have an idea. I guess the stuff I write about I know enough to get a good first draft out, preserving my voice. But if I read a first draft by an AI I think I would be influenced.

Procedural note: if you're an experienced HN user looking at this page, consider briefly turn on "show dead" and vouch for some of the spam-blocked comments - it looks like the filter takes exception to the single-website-and-nothing-else style post

  • metadat 5 months ago

    Heads up: I actually started vouching a few but then looked more closely and all these accounts have 1 karma, were created recently (< 60 days old), and the linked sites smell suspiciously of AI slop. I also didn't find any prior comments, favorited content, no signs of life. Why would someone never comment only to do so now? I'm hesitant to vouch potential bot accounts.

    {Insert Post-LLM Internet sadness for good intentions here}

    • jaggederest 5 months ago

      Yes, I vouched for a couple that had actual comment history, as with any situation like this, it's worth a review before you vouch.

      • metadat 5 months ago

        Unfortunately it looks like someone went ahead and blindly vouched everything, there are almost no dead comments now. Bummer, but perhaps an inevitable eventuality if not this time.

Nothing fancy - A simple gallery of my art progress.

https://wanderinglines.art/

Context: I started from an existing Bootstrap gallery template and stripped it down to the bare minimum. The site is static with all the sorting and grouping done client-side. Images are just files in a folder, with metadata in a JSON file. Adding a new piece is just dropping in an image and updating the JSON. It’s hosted on GitHub Pages with a cheap domain from Namecheap.

I'm a software architect with 23 years of professional experience, mainly in C#/.NET environments, and I currently lead a development team. Over the years, my focus has shifted from purely technical excellence to the human side of software development: communication, decision-making, responsibility, and sustainable performance. In parallel to my tech career, I trained as a licensed psychological counsellor and supervisor in Austria, Vienna. Today, I work with individuals and teams on topics like leadership, mental load, clarity in roles, burnout prevention, and turning reflection into action, especially in complex, high-responsibility environments such as software teams. My work bridges structured engineering thinking with psychological depth and practical implementation.

potluri 5 months ago

I'm not a web designer by trade. I did recently decide to launch a personal website after dragging my feet for many years:

https://www.potluria.com

I only have one blog post, it's effectively a host for my resume and there's a lot of work to do to make it nicer. For one, while I'm trying to convey an aesthetic with the three.js-powered background, it is _not_ performant on some devices. Choosing a SPA architecture in order to keep the background seamless is also biting me in the butt. From an SEO perspective, for example, I can't implement proper OpenGraph metadata on the blog posts since crawlers don't execute JS.

I'm happy though. I'm excited to make it a long-lived shrine.

  • medv 5 months ago

    Nice work! But cv can be designed better;)

    • potluri 5 months ago

      Thanks. Yeah, it isn't ideal. Originally nearly every item fit on one page but the point size was tiny. When I apply for roles, I prune out irrelevant information, which I can do programmatically since I rebuilt the CV; it's rendered with Typst now vs just being a Word doc. However I think I need to do a fundamental overhaul on how everything is organized. Verdict is out on how I should do that :)

I built a Q&A style blog about cruising, with an initial focus on Disney Cruise Line. We're heading out on our first family cruise, and I had a lot of very specific questions. LLM answers were usually close, but often missed important nuances, so I ended up digging through countless Reddit threads and forum posts to piece together reliable answers.

I started collecting those answers for my own reference, which gradually turned into a public blog. The funny part is that the posts themselves will probably end up as training data for future LLMs, closing the loop.

In some weird way, I also feel an obligation to keep them alive for as long as I can, so that the websites linking back to mine are not greeted with a 404. I cannot disappoint the likes of Wikipedia, USA Patents, quite a few other megacorps’ websites, Russian and Chinese websites, and many others who trusted that I’m someone with a mark/presence on the Internet.

There's a fair number of articles that were "I ran into this problem at work, so I wrote a blog post about how I fixed it" we just had the amazing upside of having a link to send somebody when they run into the same problem. I've been told by coworkers that they found my posts googling their problems before.

OP, you didn't make it clear you're only looking for sites with content shared on HN with moderate success (100+ votes), as opposed to everyone's random personal URL they may not have ever shared here. (but then why not? if it's just a community directory)

  • susam 5 months ago

    For this HN post, any website is welcome. A lot of URLs have already been shared and it will take me days to go through each one and add them to the directory. I may not add every URL posted here, but this thread is still open for people to share as many links as they like.

    Also, the guideline of 100+ total votes across five or fewer posts is not a strict rule. It exists mainly to discourage submissions that point to very thin sites with little or no content. I have already made exceptions when a website has interesting content even if it has never been posted on HN or received many upvotes.

    Also, a website shared today might not meet the 100+ votes guideline now but could meet it at some point in the future. That is another reason why all personal websites are welcome in this thread. Again, this is only a guideline, not a hard rule. If a site clearly meets the criteria, I can add it quickly and save time. If it does not, I will spend a bit more time checking that it is not spam and that it genuinely has something interesting to offer.

    • ChrisArchitect 5 months ago

      err, criteria means 'required' not guidelines.

      And encouraging 'Any personal website is welcome, whether it is a blog, digital garden, personal wiki or something else entirely' but then saying you're discouraging submissions with little content etc. Who knows what people decided to put on their personal domains, ya know?

      Anyways, obviously a ton of ppl just threw in their urls here without much concern so it's up to you what you want to include. Onwards!

russellbeattie 5 months ago

Sorry for the long post, but it may be relevant to you.

I would share my personal website which I owned for 25+ years, but AWS deregistered it because of $36.

In case you use AWS as a registrar, be warned: If your account is "closed", they will release your domains. In other words, they make them available as if they were expired. Immediately.

Short summary: I consolidated my domains at AWS years ago just to make it easier to manage everything from one spot. Earlier last year, my credit card I used for auto payments didn't have the $18 I pay for monthly costs. I didn't notice, until my email stopped working because my account was "suspended" due to non payment after a couple months.

When AWS suspended the account, they turned off DNS routing which I managed from Route 53, so not only did my websites stop working, so did my email account (which had DNS entries to route to Gmail).

So I went to log in to pay my bill, but in the time since I had last signed in, AWS had added two factor authentication. But since I couldn't get my email, I couldn't log in. Quiz: How does one pay AWS if you can't log into your account? You cant. How do you submit a ticket? Create a new account, submit a ticket about the old account from there (you still can't pay). And then wait. And then send in a notarized form plus forms of identity. It took over a two months to resolve. Meanwhile, my account went from suspended to "closed".

I put that in quotes because when I was finally able to get my log in working, my account was as it was before with all data and setup intact.

Except for all my domains.

They had been deregistered, despite having paid for years more. AWS cancelled and released my domains without my permission. They actively deleted them from the register list, so anyone out there could buy them.

russellbeattie.com was no longer mine. In addition to the other 6 domains I used.

Because of the SEO of my personal blog, some asshole had added my domain to an "add/drop" service, so it was instantly snapped up and is now used as a scam website. They also have access to all my email, which I've used for everything from Apple to Microsoft to Google and more.

So, I'd love to share my blog with you, but Amazon screwed me so badly it's incredible.

tl;dr: Don't use AWS as your registrar.

My portfolio site which is just a fun project to try to replicate Mac OS X Tiger. (You have to view on desktop or else it displays an iOS view which is way less cool).

Built using react, zustand, tailwind, and some other libraries for the genie effect and Mac hover animation, iOS view, etc… Credits are in the readme on GitHub.

My personal site that is a work in progress: https://nicholaspsmith.com

Built in Angular after having been a full time react engineer for the better part of a decade. Man I’m sick of react haha

    https://berggruen.org/news/2025-berggruen-prize-essay-compet...

    > Honorable Mentions and Shortlisted Essays

    > The English-language jury also awarded Honorable Mentions to Ian Reppel and Helen Yetter-Chappell, recognizing their essays for originality, clarity, and thoughtful engagement with the year’s theme.

    I knew I recognised the name from somewhere :D

        https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46643380

        > I'm feeling a rather "HN moment"... I found out, because I'd submitted an essay for the 2025 Berggruen Prize Essay competition too (aiming for last place --- no delusions of grandeur here, no siree). They just announced the results, and I'd noticed "Reppel" last night on hnpwd. I'd also submitted my site for hnpwd. And here we are.

        Least I can do --- terrific essay!

        (And, mine's here: https://www.evalapply.org/posts - "A Consciousness is A Dedekind Cut" ... flight of fancy, but it was a lot of fun researching / thinking / writing.)

https://gromov.com It's a custom build dynamic website, which is a rarity this days, meant to have a commenting system and other 'advanced' features. However, as time went by I realised you need A LOT of traffic for people to engage with your stuff on your own platform. Now, I suspect, it's mostly endlessly parsed by bots - and this, quite frankly, made me abandon the idea of posting my thoughts to a 'broad' internet.

Well, technically the website is built with Nix and CSS, no manual HTML written though ;)

> UPDATE: It is going to take a while to go through all the submissions and add them. If you'd like to help with the process, please send a PR directly to this project: https://github.com/hnpwd/hnpwd.github.io

If only there was a language that could run in all of our browsers, maybe even easily executable via some Quake-like console window that could open next to the website, that could just grab all visible URLs within some specific parts... Oh well ;)

    > If only there was a language that could run in all of our browsers, maybe even easily executable via some Quake-like console window that could open next to the website, that could just grab all visible URLs within some specific parts... Oh well ;)

    That's the easy part. The time consuming part is reviewing each website and ensuring that it is a legitimate personal website and not a commercial website or a startup website or blogspam. There have been a fair number of such submissions that do not qualify. Since this directory is meant to be for personal websites only, we need to review each submission.

    If you or anyone else knows a quicker way to process these submissions, determine if they are suitable for this directory, extract the relevant data for each webite and convert them to the data format we need, we would very much appreciate pull requests to <https://github.com/hnpwd/hnpwd>.

    By the way, your website was added in <https://github.com/hnpwd/hnpwd/commit/a344c1a> and it is now appears at <https://hnpwd.github.io/>.

The site performance has intermittently suffered a lot from badly behaved crawlers, so if it's slow when you visit I apologize in advance. (Edit: current load average on server is 63. Ugh.)

I have another much more active account here but Sciencemadness so easily reveals my IRL identity that I don't mention this site on the other account.
