Here's a personal website I built to catalog the various lifeforms I've encountered on my adventures. It's kind of like a Pokédex, but for real life.
- Lifeforms are categorized by Kingdom → Phylum → Class → Order → Family → Genus → species, and you can click to expand each nested category.
- As you click around, the species you've viewed are added to the browser cache. This updates the "New!" indicators, so you can see at a glance if anything new has been posted since your last visit.
- Image dithering is done client-side using a slightly modified version of Andrew Stephens' as-dithered-image[0]. My main addition was the ability to dither with 3 colors instead of 2.
I've found that since I started cataloging lifeforms, I've noticed a lot more of them while out and about. Maybe I'll catch 'em all one day.
