May 10th 2026 - Things I Worked On

Davao Explorer

I kept working on Davao Explorer.

I added a description for People's Park.

I added Croc Park with my review, tips, and ratings and a Google maps button link to each popup entry.

I also did some code maintenance and broke up the huge HTML file into smaller components (categories, locations, popup, and map).

I fixed the mobile view where on some devices it looked like the popup was off center:

I also made the legend dynamically auto populate with categories so they're no longer hard coded.

const CATEGORY_COLORS = {
    attraction: "#00d9ff",
    restaurant: "#ff2fd1",
    park: "#00ffa3",
    market: "#ff9f43",
    mall: "#ff2fd1",
    cafe: "#ff9f43"
};

function generateLegend() {
    const container = document.getElementById('legend-container');

    // Clear existing content if necessary
    container.innerHTML = '';

    // Loop through the object entries
    Object.entries(CATEGORY_COLORS).forEach(([category, color]) => {
        // Create the item wrapper
        const legendItem = document.createElement('div');
        legendItem.className = 'legend-item';

        // Capitalize the first letter of the category for the label
        const label = category.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + category.slice(1);

        // Set the inner HTML structure
        legendItem.innerHTML = `
              <div class="legend-color" style="background: ${color}"></div>
              ${label}
          `;

        container.appendChild(legendItem);
    });
}

Tried creating a YouTube Filter chrome extension with AI

The idea behind the filter is to block videos matching certain key words. I asked AI to make it but it was pretty much a complete failure. I think the reason is my scope was too big. I may try again and ask AI to create one feature at a time.

Revamped Arkvis landing page

Created a 3 card layout to highlight the 3 main projects I'm working on: Blog, Poker Equity, and Davao Explorer. Added styling and some nice images.

Shared what I worked on with HN

Its the monthly Ask HN: What are you working on? (May 2026) post. Its my first time sharing what I'm working on but it was nice to have everything logged in my journal so I could scan through and pick out what I wanted to share.

I need to work on my presentation format because, right now, it just looks like a link dump.
