What is this website?

This is Hikaru Imai's personal website.

This was built in December 2023, but of course, not all of it. Features are continuously added since.

Why I built this website

  • Show this to new people I meet (especially when traveling)
  • To learn Nextjs
  • To experiment with new things

Features

Top Page Photo

The top page randomly shows pictures I've taken.

Markdown Blog

The "projects" and "posts" page shows markdown files from a specific folder for easy editing/posting. The projects/posts are ordered from newest to oldest.

Traveled Country Map

I used amCharts5 to make the map. The map projection is "geoCylindricalStereographic" from d3-geo-projection. You can click on the individual countries to move to their page.
