Project: Personal PlatformArchitected Personal Technology Hub & Consolidated Information Architecture
Restructured nayantsrivastava.in from a flat single-page portfolio into a multi-page personal tech hub and command center.
Key Technical Observations:- ▸Engineered dedicated hub route groups: /work, /lab, /build, /writing, /now, and /about.
- ▸Preserved the ByteLogic computational platform (35 components, 3D ASCII manifolds, interactive K-Means) under /bytelogic with seamless bidirectional navigation.
- ▸Rebuilt homepage into a unified telemetry command center displaying live projects, operational focus, and domain indexes.
