CapyHost page & site polish

Added the CapyHost / CapyOS concept page with a 3D device mock and architecture diagram. Connected navigation between Home, LearnCS, Portfolio, Arcade, and CapyHost so the site feels like one system instead of separate pages.

Anthony Arcade shell online

Built the Anthony Arcade page with a retro cabinet UI and game selector. Right now it documents planned games (Terminal Runner, Bit Stack, Capy Link) and treats the arcade shell itself as a project that future games will plug into.

Portfolio page & API service

Created a dedicated portfolio page to describe the server, LearnCS, Arcade, CapyOS and the Anthony API. Configured a Flask app to run as a systemd service so the API restarts automatically and stays tied into the VPS.

LearnCS platform deployed

Deployed the LearnCS study guide to /learncs/. Includes programming languages, data structures, algorithms, OS, networks, Unix/command line, history of CS, and a basic cybersecurity section plus an embedded online Python compiler.

Server, domain & HTTPS setup

Set up the DigitalOcean VPS, created a non-root user with sudo, configured nginx, attached the anthonycs.dev domain via Cloudflare, and obtained HTTPS certificates with Certbot. Basic routing for home and future sections was put in place.

Manual dev log – kept intentionally short but specific. Next steps: ship a first playable web game and connect CapyOS to the API.
