This week, I spent a lot of time spinning my wheels. My original intent was to work on the landing page to let people know what exactly they are looking at. But as I started thinking about it, screen shots are one of the biggest components of landing pages. That meant I needed to start adding my own projects. Ya know, really dog-fooding it before really trying to serve it to others.

But as I started doing that, it still felt off. Honestly, this is probably procrastinating actually using the app since that would mean potentially getting more eyes on it. But either way, I ended up reworking a few things that I feel are a good baseline.

Here are the change highlights:

• Changed user gallery to a tabbed layout where the project details are separated from the journal posts
• Added a short bio section to the gallery that is displayed at the top
• Added a detailed bio section under "about" tab in the gallery for people to enter longer breakdowns about themselves
• Reworked project pages into a tabbed layout with project details being separated from the journal
• Added a "links" section to project page

Though it's still very much a skeleton (I'm using the default MUI theme still...), this feels like it has the basic information to make it more usable for my purposes. And being my own first user, my hope is that this translates into solving a similar problem for others. Hopefully, I can more easily communicate my intent through this example.

With that said, my next steps will be to load up my gallery with my own projects and then create a landing page using screenshots.
