Hey HN! Been thinking about something like this for a long time, and finally decided to work on it three months ago. Excited to show everyone today!
.
———— TLDR ————
I built a website builder (works on desktop & mobile) that makes it easy to create automatically-responsive, collage-like websites -- websites that allow you to overlap text, images, GIFs, YouTube videos, etc. etc.
Check it out @ https://build.mmm.page

———— Nitty Gritty Details ————
* Every page is automatically responsive (a demonstration of how is shown on the homepage).
* Allow text, images, GIFs, shapes, YouTube videos to start (much more planned).
* Everybody gets their own URL/namespace @ mmm.page/USERNAME
* _Actual_ drag and drop! No grid-locking (though there are layout alignment guides).
* Tiny cool thing -- try pinching and zooming on your touchpad (rotate works on Safari too).
.
———— Motivation ————
There seems to be fewer and fewer personal websites -- many of which now look increasingly similar -- and, yet, more people than ever have some Graphic Design Lite experience (a la Snapchat & Instagram), so I figured, it could be interesting to see websites made with a similar style, WYSIWYG composer as Snapchat/IG. (That, and the math to do these layouts manually is always too much hassle for me.)
.
———— Updates to Come ————
A lot still needs to be done, but wanted to share today to gather some feedback -- hope you find it useful!
