Thank you for checking out my site!

I am David, a 22-year-old computer science student. I made this site because I wanted my own little space on the web. It's so incredibly boring to see so many websites that are just the same two colors with an algorithm that controls everything you see and hear. I absolutely love making stuff, so I thought... why not just make stuff and share it with the world?

The fact that this is the internet now is kind of... I don't know, unsettling...? Concerning? It's not like I'm completely against AI and all this, but come on, we can do so much better than just completely replace the human touch. written using github copilot (/s)

Long story short, me and social media do not go well together, and I wanted to make a space just for myself, so I made this site. The previous version was made using pure HTML and CSS using a custom build system (that I have right here). I always wanted to make something using Next.js, and the previous version was a little bit clunky, so I straight up remade the whole thing using Next.js, React, Tailwind CSS and DaisyUI. Now that I have a properly made identity for this site, I hope to make even more cool stuff with it! The entire development process is documented in the GitHub repository!

I love challenges. Figuring things out has to be one of my favorite things about programming. That feeling when you solve a problem that you have been stuck on for hours is just so incredibly satisfying. Learning new ways of doing things or new languages is also up there on the list. I just like making stuff.

Why cakes?

This was a question a bunch of people asked me, so I will write it at the top. One of my first actual online nicknames was "Kex1016", which pretty much just meant "keksz" in Hungarian, or "biscuit" in English. Because I like them. Then, someone started calling me "cakes" on Discord, because it sounds almost the same. I thought it was pretty funny, so when I finally decided to change my nickname on AniList to something else, I just went with "cakes". I did not expect it to be free to take.

What do I like?

I think it's pretty obvious that I like programming, and animanga. I also really like reading and playing all sorts of games. My taste in latter two is veery broad, but I tend to gravitate towards chill stuff. In terms of games, I love playing all sorts of indie games, mostly roguelikes, RPGs and shooter games. I also play League of Legends, but only if I have someone to play with...

I LOVE MUSIC. I listen to everything. And I mean it. Classical, metal, lo-fi, tons and tons of electronic music, rap, pop, rock, you name it. Some standout artists for me are:
