Intrasti

A passion-project website directory that indexes websites organized by topics. A redesign is underway to rebalance the focus between websites and topics — currently topics dominate — replacing the live 'shelves' approach with a new 'topic card' UI. The build uses only the web platform (no Tailwind or CSS frameworks), relying on child combinators for maintainable CSS, and the codebase was recently reorganized from a domain-driven structure to a flat, horizontally layered layout.

    “Currently working on a redesign for my passion project website directory intrasti.com. There's websites and topics but there's a lot of focus on topics. I'd like to bring the focus away from topics and balance it out between them. The new design is going to introduce a new 'topic card' UI instead of a shelves approach that's currently live.”
