Description
GitHub repo: https://github.com/AntiKippi/errorpagesLive preview: https://kippi.at/public/errorpages/I've spend the last few days overengineering HTTP status code error pages. It started with me wanting an aesthetic, glitchy 404 page with a bit of "cyberpunk" and "hacker" vibes while still being simple and JS free. It ended in this project.wdyt?
