About

Hi, I’m Adrianne.

I’m a curious builder who likes turning experiments, notes, and messy ideas into clear, useful things. Adrianne Codes is my space for frontend projects, technical writing, tutorials, and learning in public.

What this site is

This site is part portfolio, part technical notebook. I use it to document what I build, what I’m learning, and how I think through the process — especially when it comes to frontend development, content systems, and writing that helps other people follow along.

My site ecosystem

I split my work across a few focused spaces so each one can stay clear and intentional:

• Adrianne Codes — frontend projects, tutorials, and technical writing
• Prompted by Adrianne — AI experiments and prompt case studies
• Patterned by Adrianne — data projects, dashboards, and analysis

This setup lets me separate early ideas and learning notes from more polished work.

A quick history

I’ve been building websites for a long time, starting from the early days of the web:

• c. 1997–1998 — A Dragon Ball Z fanfiction site hosted on the now-defunct GeoCities
• 2001 — balamb-epitaph.net, a Final Fantasy VIII fan collective and my first site with its own domain
• 2002 — funyaraga.nu, a personal site experimenting with design, fandom, and “random whatevers” during the early indie web era

This current site is part of a much longer journey — just built with better tools, clearer thinking, and a lot more experience.

What I care about

I care about clarity, accessibility, and thoughtful design. I’m especially interested in the intersection of frontend work, technical writing, data, and ethical AI — not just how tools work, but how people actually use them.
