New Updates

⚠️ Starting from 2024/4/17, this section is not going to list new updates of the website.

Instead, it is strongly recommended to checkout the website’s changelog to view any new features, bug fixes or design improvements.

Current Mode

Built by Next.js. The current homepage presents an interactive, unique-designed personal portfolio of myself. :D

More updates soon…

Legacy Mode

Brief Walkthrough (Web Users)

• This is an interactive and mobile responsive personal website.
• The webpage will be displayed in a custom dark mode from 19:00 to 6:00, at Eastern Daylight Time Zone. You can change the theme by yourself by clicking the button on the right side of the navbar.

Except for BUCSSA, all mentioned industries or organizations are linked to their official websites.

Left Menu

A menu holding a sticky position displaying my current location(click on it will change into my home location) as well as a list of contacts, including email address, LinkedIn, GitHub, Instagram, Discord and WeChat(which is actually WeCom for privacy reasons).

Right Division

The main content is divided into four sections: About, Projects, Teaching and Advising.

• About: It starts with an introduction in the third-person, followed by a button where you can download my resume as PDF if you click on it. My resume will be updated once a month.
  • After that, you can see a subsection called tech stack displaying all used programming languages, scripts and frameworks through out my path of R&D with their logos showed as badges.
• Projects: This sections contain all landing projects I’ve done since 2021. Most of the projects contain a link to the source code or the deployed product. I’m trying to make the rest visible as soon as possible.
  • For projects with a report or an essay as the final output, those files are locked with passwords. If you’re a recruiter or someone interested in the content, I’m willing to provide the password!
  • There’s no detailed introduction displayed, only contributor(s), as well as optional information: framework&language, organization, company.
• Teaching: This section contains all experiences I had in the past at specific education industries.
• Advising: This section displays students I’ve advised, mainly on high school and university applications. If possible, their offers may be updated in the website!
• MapMyVisitors: I added an external source from MapMyVisitors to check my web visitors, which will be displayed at the bottom of the page.

  Navbar

  You can go to each section without scrolling yourself by clicking on the contents of the navbar.

WeCom Page

When clicking on WeChat, you’ll enter another page displaying the QR Code of my WeCom. Due to the privacy reason of my personal accounts as well as the privacy policy of WeChat, I cannot display my account through a link.

You can return to the main page by clicking on Xinyang Cheng in the navbar

Brief Walkthrough (Mobile Users)

• The webpage will be displayed in a custom dark mode from 19:00 to 6:00, at Eastern Daylight Time Zone.

Navbar

• My contacts are moved to the navbar with icons displayed only. Clicking on the icons will send you to my profiles.
• WeCom page is inaccessible in mobile template.
• The map widget is removed in mobile template.

Left Menu

This division is removed in mobile template.

Right Division

It is now the main section of the webpage.

At the very beginning of the division, you’ll see a slider that allows you to switch between day and night theme.

Future Expectations

✅ I’m considering using Angular or React to my personal website.

New Sections

• Publications: wait until my first essay is published 😂 ✅ Research: for the purpose of recording R&D experiences
• Resume: an animated subpage from the home page dynamically showing my experiences
