Toolkit—More

Details about how I create and the website's latest changes.

  • This Website—Original design by Caspian (sketchbook). Implemented with Cursor, built on Astro and React islands. Deployed to Vercel. Versioned with GitHub. All artwork on this website is my own, handmade in Blender.
  • Product Design—Internal documentation and Gemini for understanding the problem space. Figma for early digital sketches and system architecture exploration. Cursor or Claude for design iteration, prototyping, and handoff.
  • Creative Writing—Apple Notes for short-form, Google Docs for longer work. I do not use AI to replace or suggest prose, nor do I use it for plot or character development.
  • Visual & Motion Art—Blender for modeling, texturing, animation, and final renders to be physically printed or digitally displayed.
  • Latest Website Changes—September 20, 2026. Selection highlight color updated to a more quiet #f2ede6. Slowed link hover transition timing for heavier feel.
