Uses

I made this website from scratch over the course of about a month. Currently, this is the third iteration of my personal website, and the one that I'm most proud of. This page is meant to serve as a place where I explain what I used to make this site as well as what I use on a day to day basis for my workflow. Moreover, here is where I get to give credit where it's due to the people who helped me make juanlam.com

Site Made With...

Images

  • Images for the poems are made using Pixray, an AI Image Generator that leverages VQGAN + CLIP to create images based on prompts

  • Cover Images for short stories are typically made using Disco Diffusion, which uses a Diffusion model to generate images from prompts. Special thanks to my friend Ethan Smith, who has done great work helping me generate these!
