a hack club ysws where
ys: a (functional) website without any css
ws: a sticker sheet and prizes to the coolest submissions (ones that make my eyes bleed)

rules

• no css allowed - not even inline styles (no either) (<tt> and images are allowed)
• javascript is allowed - use it creatively
• your website has to be functionally complete - meaning it must have some use and have functionality but not necessarily pretty
• it must take you at least an hour to complete
• this isn't double dippable with any other ysws

how to participate

1. track your time with hackatime
2. build your masterpiece using only html and javascript
3. submit your creation when done!

examples

ideas to get you started:

• a bus tracker with an ascii ui
• weather radar that uses websockets for real-time data
• dungeon crawler where you type commands to move
• fluid physics simulation
• social network
• ascii renderer

javascript techniques

ways to create visual effects without css:

textContent manipulation

animate text by changing content over time

ascii art

draw pictures using text characters

<pre> blocks

preserve spacing for text-based graphics

unicode characters

use emoji and symbols: ▓░█▄▀●○◐◑

html attributes

use width, height, border on elements

resources
