I have been sooo exited to show you all this.
I have made my 9th version of my website! You can see it at my domain (hosted by fastly, it’s great)

This was my first time using GSAP (all the animations) and Locomotive Scroll (smooth scrolling) and I felt really proud of what I accomplished
In the past, AI has helped when I have issues, but the only thing it did was import locomotive scroll.
I want feedback on the animations, and such! Thanks!

does that scrolling feel slower than normal? as in fewer pixels scrolled per notch of the mousewheel

Yes. It is smoother by locomotive scroll
It ends up being a bit jerky on mobile (for me at least; chromium 124 on android 10) but otherwise very nice

it looks really nice and is fun! but I wouldn’t recommend using Locomotive Scroll, it’s very hard to scroll, makes my hand hurt a lot, is not very smooth and is sometimes pretty janky.
Also it looks like you’re loading the entire google icons library for one single icon, you should consider inlining SVG in that case.
btw in the projects page you need to scroll for the projects to be visible and there isn’t much indication of that, consider showing them on slow.

Try it now. I made it faster.

Cool! I kinda wish it had more personal information yourself but I’m not a hiring manager! I’d love to hear your music.

Yeah I agree tiago I kinda wish there was a hint of the projects before you scroll - I was a little confused for a split second.

May you please elaborate what you mean by “virtual background needs update?”
