About · the project

What this site does, in practice

A compact start page for everyday development — weather, search, curated links, snippets, a private scratchpad, a few break games. Static HTML, no accounts, no telemetry, no dependencies.

01 Surface area & data What's bundled into the page, and how your data is handled.

A What's included

Start page

Live weather (with sunrise / sunset and moon phase), quick web search, a built-in pomodoro timer, a quick-note scratch pad, curated developer links, team timezones, and a daily-rotating tip / snippet / dev quote.
Tools

A small set of everyday client-side utilities — encoders, hashes, formatters, generators. Everything runs locally in this tab.
Snippets

130+ short commands and code examples across common dev categories. Live search, tag filtering, vanilla syntax highlighting, and shareable filter URLs.
Board

A PIN-encrypted local scratchpad. Each PIN opens a separate board; notes are encrypted in your browser with AES-256-GCM, using a key derived from your PIN via PBKDF2-SHA256 (600 000 iterations). Inline edit, copy, undo-delete, and JSON export / import. Forget the PIN and that board is lost — there is no recovery. A 4-digit PIN is brute-forceable in minutes by a motivated attacker — this protects against casual snooping, not strong attacks.
Games

A handful of tiny browser games for short breaks. Keyboard plus on-screen d-pad and swipe on touch; best scores are saved locally and switching tabs auto-pauses any running game.

B Privacy & data

Local-only by design

Notes, pinned items, and your chosen weather city live in localStorage — they never leave your browser.
No account, no sign-up

The board is gated by a 4-digit PIN of your choice. Different PINs open different empty boards on this device.
Zero analytics, zero telemetry

There is no tracking script. The page does not know who you are, and never will.
Honest external calls

Weather comes from Open-Meteo, geocoding from Nominatim. Both keyless. The search form submits to Google in a new tab — only when you press Enter.

02 Tech notes How the site is built, for engineers who like to know. vanilla · 0 deps

Stack

Plain HTML, CSS, vanilla JavaScript. No build step, no framework, no preprocessor.
Weight

Each page is one self-contained file, roughly ~25–95 KB — the games page is the heaviest, the others sit closer to the bottom of that range. Two web fonts (Inter Tight, JetBrains Mono) are loaded from Google Fonts.
Storage

Only localStorage. A handful of small per-feature keys — chosen theme and city, quick-note text, pomodoro day count, the encrypted board blob (one per PIN), and per-game best scores. Nothing leaves the browser.
External

Open-Meteo for weather (no API key), Nominatim for reverse geocoding, Google for web search. Credits in §04.
Browser APIs

Web Crypto for hashes, UUIDs, and the board's PBKDF2-SHA256 (600 000 iterations) + AES-GCM encryption. navigator.clipboard.writeText for the Copy buttons — the site never reads the clipboard. The Notification API is used by the pomodoro (asked once, silent if denied), and visibilitychange auto-pauses any running game when you switch tabs.
Offline

Tools, snippets, board and games run entirely in your browser after first load. The start page hits the network only for live weather, city search and reverse geocoding.

03 Purpose Why this exists in a world full of dashboards.

AyzekNet is meant as a quiet daily home page for technical people who want a small, fast and focused place to start their work — without ceremony, without sign-ups, without telemetry.

Most “productivity dashboards” try to be everything: calendars, tasks, news, widgets, ads, AI. This one tries to stay narrow on purpose — useful in the first five seconds after you open a new tab, and out of the way the rest of the time.
