This project is my way of taking a delightful trip down memory lane, back to the early 2000s—a time of AOL Instant Messenger, MySpace, and the early days of online creativity. It was an exciting era of innovation and discovery.
You'll find the classic sections—About, Projects, and Contact—inside the Maxthon Browser on the desktop. Think of it as blending nostalgic charm with modern tech, all wrapped up in the iconic XP style.

- Bug fixes: Continue to identify and fix any bugs that may arise.
- Minimize Code/Refactor This is my first time using Sveltekit, I love it because its easier to get started. The drawback is there aren't many examples of standards on how projects should be structured. This will a continous improvement.
