About me

My name is Jackson and I'm a highschool student who's interested in mathematics and everything computer science, and this is my website which was registered in 2022.

A Timeline

I've been coding since 6th grade when I was 12, and even before that I used to make games on the popular kids programming language scratch.
I didn't start using O.O.P (Object Oriented Programming language) till 6th grade when I started learning Javascript, My first projects consisted solely of Javascript bookmarklets which where snippets of code that could be ran by clicking on a bookmark, one of most memorable was called “Super Client” a draggable GUI that had a list of controls where a user would press a key and it would run another bookmarklet. It was very inefficient and was very buggy but, I would say it was what started my programming journey.
Over the years I would work on several iterations of Super Client till I eventually got into web development where I started learning HTML and bits of CSS, my first websites looked horrible they consisted of brightly colored shapes and the default text one of these was called Weblet Launcher, an unblocked games website I made so that me and my friends could play unblocked games during school, it sucked, but it worked.

Shortly after I re-branded it to OASIS based on my favorite movie: “Ready Player One”, The website went over a few iterations but a while ago I updated it because there were a lot of people that still used it even though my school had long blocked it. After my school blocked OASIS I worked on a new version: “OASIS Offline” which did not have a website and was instead a folder of HTML files that could be ran as a website, It was a hit lots of people at my school would use it but it only came to a close when my school forced my to delete it as I had decided to host the download on my SCHOOL GOOGLE DRIVE which was not a smart move, i'm sure there's a few copies floating around somewhere but I don't feel like looking for one.

OASIS Offline was the seed for multiple other OASIS projects usually with a similar concept, many of which were not released/finished. That brings us to today, our (somewhat) latest project OASIS X that me and my friend Oliver worked on together. It had a lot of work put into it but flopped as it was released unfinished and has a lot of missing features and bugs. More recently I've been working on another which (hopefully) should outperform the last.
