OVERVIEW_
What is it?
It's a personal all-in-one webpage that consolidates updates and patch notes for the games I currently follow.
Why?
As a gamer and enthusiast of various game titles, I found it time-consuming and inefficient to constantly open multiple tabs to check on updates, patch notes, and development news for the games I followed. With so many games to keep track of, managing all the information across different sources was overwhelming and quite a hassle.
CHALLENGE_
My solution
To solve this, I wanted to build a single webpage that centralized updates for all the games I follow, removing the hassle of juggling multiple tabs. The result was a streamlined platform that consolidates the latest news and patch notes all in one place.
PROCESS_
How did I build this…
I built the webpage using React for dynamic content, Vercel for deployment, and Tailwind CSS for customizability and efficient styling. The goal was to keep everything on a single page for simplicity and ease of use. I used Google and YouTube for guidance, learning how to implement an iframe for displaying game updates. The entire project was completed in one day, focusing on a minimalist design and efficient functionality.
OUTCOME_
Can I improve this?
To improve the user experience, I plan to optimize the iframe loading speed for quicker access to content and resolve compatibility issues with various browser plugins; some friends couldn’t view certain in-game browser frames due to their setups. In addition to performance improvements, I’ll be refining the current design, which feels a bit minimal, although that simplicity might be part of its charm. I’m also considering adding a dedicated window for each game category to showcase related Twitter or Reddit feeds and highlight community sentiment. Stay tuned for updates!
