      <title>Update on Archaic</title>

      <guid>https://forem.com/designzbyoj/update-on-archaic-2259</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Vibe coding has taught me that despite having everything automated for you, there are still issues. For ex. Base44 had a lot of issues w/ alignment, updating changes throughout the files, and in basic design principles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;However when it comes to cool themes, it really makes a site pop.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I wasn't able to upload the video demo here of all themes added, but you can see it &lt;a href="https://drive.proton.me/urls/ZXV163EE90#cSEcglNTS1K2" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;here from Proton Drive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I plan on developing this webapp from scratch using React, if you love this idea and want to either code alongside me or support financially, reach out on email &lt;a href="mailto:designzbyoj@gmail.com"&gt;designzbyoj@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt; (github: Designz48) or &lt;a href="https://ko-fi.com/designzbyoj" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;support through Ko-Fi&lt;/a&gt;. Happy Coding!&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Updated errors in this test website I made, Archaic! 
Bringing your memories to life in an organized bento-grid style to share with friends &amp; family. Still looking for people to test it out, tips for developing this myself in React is appreciated :)</title>

      <title>Building Archaic - Nostalgic memory sharing platform</title>
      <dc:creator>DesignzByOJ</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Sat, 01 Nov 2025 20:41:11 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://forem.com/designzbyoj/building-archaic-nostalgic-memory-sharing-platform-5d1p</link>
      <guid>https://forem.com/designzbyoj/building-archaic-nostalgic-memory-sharing-platform-5d1p</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Last night &lt;em&gt;just as I was getting to sleep&lt;/em&gt;, I had an eureka moment. There’s all this stuff about AI and the cool stuff it will do in the future. But what about what humans have done already? Why not build a platform by sharing people’s memories of any time period &lt;em&gt;(not that Mozart will be posting)&lt;/em&gt; between friends &amp;amp; family?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That’s when I wondered, what will it be called? And &lt;strong&gt;Archaic&lt;/strong&gt; stood out in my mind. I forgot what it meant, but I must’ve intuitively knew, because by googling it means,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Relating to, being, or characteristic of words and language that were once in regular use but are now relatively rare and suggestive of an earlier style or period.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Perfect&lt;/em&gt;, I thought. The next day I fired up Base44 and got to deciding how best to dev it. Ironically, it’s a site that is about the pre-AI era since it’s for humans appreciating the time periods that they care about — most of which I’m sure is without AI.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So what are these memories that will be shared? Multi-media including pictures, videos, and music in a bento box structure where each bento box can be shared with whomever and represents whatever idea &amp;amp; time period it encompasses.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I plan to fully develop this on my own after using Base44 once I’m sure people are interested in it, as I have with a website I did for a friend elderwoodstea.com using React, Vite, and eslint &lt;em&gt;(basic stuff ik, I'm learning)&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here’s some of the beginning steps of it, &lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fhallyqh6k62wz5fj7uib.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fhallyqh6k62wz5fj7uib.png" alt=" " width="800" height="450"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fcxc3ojqloeybivqwxhn9.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fcxc3ojqloeybivqwxhn9.png" alt=" " width="800" height="450"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;it took a few tries to get the AI to go from a cliche bold typeface to a handwritten, nostalgic look. But that’s what I figure it should look like, &lt;a href="https://archaic-cb904f1e.base44.app/home" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;you’re the one to judge!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So what are these &lt;em&gt;memories&lt;/em&gt; that will be shared? Multi-media including pictures, videos, and music in a bento box structure where each bento box can be shared with whomever and represents whatever idea &amp;amp; time period it encompasses.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I plan to fully develop this on my own after using Base44 once I'm sure people are interested in it, as I have with a website I did for a friend elderwoodstea.com. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here's some of the beginning steps of it, it took a few tries to get the AI to go from a cliche bold typeface to a handwritten, nostalgic look. But that's what I figure it should look like, &lt;a href="https://archaic-cb904f1e.base44.app/home" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;you're the one to judge!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
