A Silly Alarm Clock in HTML
Posted on September 07, 2012
This project is hosted on Github I have embeded the page below, but you can also directly access it here Eh iframe not supported? I have made this alarm clock, but I am a bit tired of it so I just release this partially finished app as a demo/concept. As you can see, this is an alarm clock designed to be mobile-friendly (though I don’t really think people will actually use a HTML5 alarm clock...

Some Handy Web Development Tricks
Posted on March 25, 2012
In this post, I would like to share some small but useful tricks I found in web development. Set up a simple server locally. For front-end web developers, setting up a PHP and mess around with all the web configurations is just inconvenient. But certain features, like XHttpRequest and web workers, are just not supported by some browsers when the page is accessed locally. Luckily Python has a really interesting utility: python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000...

How to code a book in CSS
Posted on October 08, 2011
This is the first 'theme' I designed. I call it The Long Book, as it is supposed to mimic a book, and turns out to be rather long....

Solitaire
Posted on July 23, 2011
Update: the game has been sold to a company and the links are no longer valid. My second HTML5 game is done! Grab my Solitaire here! This time it was relatively easy to write because I recycled much of the old codes from the previous Freecell. However, maybe I overused a lot of transformation to achieve the flipping effect, only chrome can run the game fluently :( On firefox it was very laggy, and on...

Freecell with HTML5
Posted on July 17, 2011
The game has been sold to a company and the links are no longer valid. I spent some time learning css3 and html5 and coded this game. You can play it here, or install it from Chrome Store here. This game was coded primarily for chrome, so it doesn't work on IE or opera. I added support for firefox, but firefox doesn't render scaled background nicely. It also can't render box-shadow efficiently, so the experience...
