My Resume online
June 9, 2024•392 words
Hey everyone,
I'm thrilled to announce the launch of my new resume website at BrandonPendleton.com. This project has been a blend of nostalgia, technical precision, and a touch of AI magic, bringing together everything I love about web development and tech.
Returning to the Roots: HTML
Creating this site took me back to the fundamentals of pure HTML. No fancy frameworks or bulky dependencies—just a clean, single-file HTML structure. This choice aimed for simplicity and complete control over every element. In today’s complex web ecosystem, going back to basics was refreshingly liberating, ensuring a fast, responsive, and accessible user experience.
Harnessing AI for Content Creation
A significant part of this project was using AI for prompt generation. If you’ve read my posts on Pendlerosa, you know I’m all about leveraging AI to enhance productivity and creativity. This time, AI helped draft and refine the content for the site, like having a brainstorming partner who never runs out of ideas. The result is content that’s engaging, professional, and uniquely reflective of my journey.
