New Major Update on Our Website

Good afternoon, dear readers.

As many of you know, I have been working intensively on this project for a year. This website, besides being my personal portfolio where I share my professional achievements, has become a space to share technical knowledge, labs, and everything I consider of interest.

During this time, I have made numerous changes, both in design and functionality of the website. The last major update I shared with you was the migration from Ghost to the Astro framework. Since then, I have implemented a variety of improvements without notifying each one. Today, finally, it's time to share with you all the new features of the website.

New Global Features

1. Login Page:

  • We have implemented a login page where users can see the latest updates, their level, trophies, and rank. This feature provides a personalized and motivating experience for each user, helping them track their progress and stay engaged with the site's content.

Login Page

2. Interactive Contact System:

  • Now you can send emails interactively, precisely defining the reason for your inquiry. This system not only facilitates communication but also ensures that each query is directed to the correct department, speeding up responses and improving user satisfaction.

Interactive Form

3. AI-Powered Search Engine:

  • This new search engine allows users to find and receive recommendations for articles that may be of interest. The AI learns from your searches and behaviors on the web, offering more accurate and relevant results over time. This ensures that you always find what you're looking for quickly and efficiently.

AI Search Form

4. Trophy and Level System:

  • We have added a trophy and user level system. These trophies are hidden on the page, creating a fun and gamified experience. I invite everyone to explore the site and discover these trophies, which are not only a recognition but also a way to encourage participation and continuous learning.

Improvements in the Post Section

Improvements in the Post Section

1. Narration Service:

  • If you love podcasts, now you can listen to our articles. This feature is perfect for those who prefer to absorb information audibly, allowing you to enjoy our content while on the go.

2. Translation Service:

  • You can translate our posts into any language with a single click. This opens our doors to a global audience, ensuring that knowledge and information are accessible to everyone, without language barriers.

3. Feedback Service:

  • Thanks to user feedback, we now classify comments using AI, which provides an overall feedback score for each post. Additionally, the moderation of these comments is also done by AI to ensure that only legitimate feedback is cataloged. This system not only improves the quality of the comments but also provides a clear and objective view of the impact and reception of each article.

4. AI Assistance:

  • We have integrated an AI with which you can interact to resolve doubts or questions about the published posts. This AI analyzes each question and offers a contextualized response to provide help and clarify explanations. You no longer have to search for answers on your own; the AI is here to assist you at any time.

5. Voice or Text Interaction:

  • You can ask the AI questions by text or by voice and receive responses in both formats. This allows for more natural and flexible interaction, adapting to your preferences and needs. Whether you prefer to write your questions or dictate them, our AI is ready to respond.

I am very excited about all these improvements and hope you enjoy the new features as much as I enjoyed implementing them. These updates not only enhance the user experience but also reflect our ongoing commitment to innovation and excellence.

Thank you for being part of this community and for your continued support. I look forward to your comments and suggestions!
