Overview

I developed aro-n-sword.com, an open-sourced, full-stack web application focused on increasing visibility and understanding of aromanticism in the LGBTQIA+ community. The project arose from identifying a critical need: aromantic individuals, who make up just 0.4% of the population, lacked engaging online resources and often face AI-driven discrimination in content moderation.

As the sole developer, I built an interactive platform featuring educational resources and community-building elements like a Bingo game. This first-of-its-kind website has created an accessible space for learning about aromantic experiences while fostering community engagement through its dynamic content.

Features

• Interactive Education widget on LGBTQIA+

• 2 Bingo games! (You can share results with friends)

• Stress-relieving meditation page with floating cards

• Most helpful Resource list for the aromantic
