# Poocha

This is my personal website, where I share my projects, blog posts, and other things I find interesting. It serves as a portfolio of my work and a place to express my thoughts.

# The Theme

- Custom-built with a **semi-retro** aesthetic, blending some modern styling with Pixel art design.
- The icons were hand-drawn using [Aseprite](https://www.aseprite.org/).
- Color are adapted from the [Catppuccin color palette](https://catppuccin.com/palette/). Hence the theme name `Cat` and the site name `Poocha` (Cat in Malayalam, my mother tongue).
- The [Munro](https://www.tenbytwenty.com/#munro) font was chosen to try and strike a balance between the pixel art aesthetic I want and readability.

# The Site

- Built using [Zola](https://www.getzola.org/), a fast static site generator in Rust.
- Each page is supposed to be under 15 KB. This *might* stop being a thing in the future, but I like the idea of a lightweight site.
- Hosted on [Cloudflare Pages](https://pages.cloudflare.com/).
- Built in the open at [GitHub](https://github.com/mufeedali/poocha).

## To-Do

- [ ] Needs better accessibility.
- [ ] Optimize how SVGs are loaded. Maybe using symbol ids to deduplicate them?
