Daniel Cui

Hi there! I'm a first year college student from the Bay Area, studying CS at UC Santa Barbara.

I enjoy creating [cool things] with code, [sketching], and making [pixel art]. Feel free to check out my work below!

Right now, I'm busy living my life.

I'm planning to make paperplane, a text editor/format for creative writing, and tart, a simple project management tool. More on my GitHub!

Reach me at solunian@gmail.com or @solunian on Instagram or Discord.

projects

two-colors

Game to treat amblyopia (lazy eye) through minigames while wearing color-tinted 3D glasses; built with the LÖVE game engine in Lua. Still a rough demo.

clap-mc ·

Media controller for a computer's audio/video playback by detecting claps. For SBHacks XI.

identicon ·

Incredibly simple identicon generator in Rust. Playing around with pixel-based art from seeded hash data.

lua-docs ·

Aesthetic documentation for the coolest scripting language!

countdown ·

A pretty clean and messily written countdown generator for deadlines and timers. Just a kinda half-baked project made over a weekend.

Daniel's Hacker News

Aesthetic wrapper for Y Combinator's Hacker News. Just a nice way to check out tech news.

Personal Website ·

Huh. I guess you're already here... well, that's something, isn't it? Anyway, have a nice day! Stay determined!

unimash ·

A joke website replicating FaceMash for "uni"-versities. Just some fun with MongoDB, SvelteKit's form actions, and chess rating systems.

jazzboard

A hacky way to play jazz piano lead sheets on a computer keyboard. Prototyped at Hack Club's Outernet!

Tinovation Website ·

The amazing website for the revolutionized Tinovation club! Includes general club information, programming resources, a showcase for members' projects, and a cool leaderboard.
