Kya Challa

During the early days of COVID-19, when I found myself unemployed, I decided to make the most of my free time by starting this channel as a fun and creative outlet πŸŽ₯. At one point, the "Kya challa?" video went viral 🌟, giving the channel a surge of attention and motivating me to continue for a while.

Visit the official site kyachalla.com. I'm deeply grateful πŸ™ for the positive response from people who genuinely enjoyed the content ❀️, and I cherish the unique experience of this YouTube adventure. πŸš€

Kya Challa - Extra

This Extra channel, unlike the name suggests, was more about exploring visually creative 🎨 projects that caught my interest based on internet trends ✨. It also served as a dedicated beatboxing audio 🎢 library for the kyachalla.com channel, catering to the many viewers who had been requesting those audios as standalone content. 🎀

Random Sketches

I enjoy drawing and making sketches from time to time 🎨. Blog posts with the tag sketch is where all my sketches are linked. Watch this space for more! ✍️

I enjoy diving into tech tinkering πŸͺ› and thought it’d be exciting to share these fun escapades with everyone! It’s amazing to explore and create while connecting with like-minded enthusiasts. πŸ€—

This Website

This website itself is a hobby project that I thoroughly enjoyed creating πŸ› οΈ. It’s designed with specific goals in mind: a simple, CSS-based structure that embraces semantic HTML 🌐 for clarity and accessibility. I decided to go with simplecss.org and I love it.

The site is intentionally static and free from unnecessary JavaScript, keeping it lightweight and efficient ⚑. However, to ensure maintainability, it incorporates dynamic elements πŸ› οΈ, so I don’t have to manually update headers, footers, and shared components across all pages. This operates entirely offline, with newly updated static pages deployed directly to the hosting space πŸš€. This approach eliminates the need for costly dynamic hosting πŸ’°, which would be excessive for my requirements and unnecessary for the site's functionality.

It’s a perfect blend of simplicity, functionality, and efficiency: an approach I’ve truly enjoyed bringing to life!
