I built a Neo-Brutalist website for MagicDrop — a local-network file sharing CLI

#webdev #productivity #showdev #css

I just launched a new website for MagicDrop, my local-network file and text sharing CLI.

I wanted the website to feel as unique as the project itself, so I redesigned it with a bold neo-brutalist UI — thick borders, hard shadows, high-contrast typography, and vibrant lime accents.

For now, the website has two pages:

  • 🏠 Landing / Home page — introduces MagicDrop, features, installation, commands, browser sharing, local-network architecture, and the latest release.

  • 📦 Releases page — a dedicated release history showing MagicDrop 0.0.2 and the first 0.0.1 release.
    The site is built with plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript, with responsive navigation and small reveal/copy interactions.

MagicDrop: a simple way to share files and text between terminal and browser over the same local network, without cloud storage.

🔗 Website: https://magicdrop-cli.netlify.app
📦 NPM: https://www.npmjs.com/package/magicdrop-cli
💻 GitHub: https://github.com/sorathiya903/MagicDrop

Why only 2 pages for now?

I m a student,so now my tests are going one.
The other pages can be released after 20/9/26

I'd love to hear what you think about the design and what I could improve in future pages!
