Recently, as I have been delving into the Bible, I've discovered numerous connections between different parts of the text from just a single verse-- even a single word. The idea to create this website emerged upon encountering several Bible platforms that either charge a fee or require a subscription for access to analytical tools. Moreover, the completely free websites lacked features I desired for deeper Bible analysis. My vision for this website extends beyond merely offering a Bible Analysis platform. I aim to ensure it remains free, accessible, and user-friendly. Additionally, I want to incorporate a community component that will also remain free as I have observed other websites charging for such features (including subscriptions to recieve devotions), which deeply infuriates me.

On June 4, 2023, I embarked on a journey to bring my vision to life by learning HTML and CSS. Nearly a year later on June 2, 2024 (having now learned JS, XML, PHP, and SQL in addition to HTML and CSS), I now present my first official website design.
Below, you will find all available rough drafts and designs I created along the way. Please note that these drafts may not be fully functional. Each link will open in a new tab, so you won't lose this page. Enjoy exploring!
Click H E R E for the first website design.
- WARNING: You will see a prototype message that I have not removed; you may ignore it and click "OK".
- Initially, I planned to type out the entire Bible by hand before learning about XML and JS parsing.
- I intended to include a Bible timeline on the website, and this idea is still under consideration.
- I originally chose a grey color theme to depict an "ancient" aesthetic.
- A loading screen was added for every new page the user accessed. These same Bible verses are displayed in the current version when no tab has been clicked.
- My email was initially displayed openly, unaware that bots could harvest it, leading to numerous spam emails. (Note: The email displayed on the website will not work since it is .com and not .org.)
- All of this was before I learned that .org websites typically represent free websites.
Click H E R E for the second website design.
- The introduction of an intro page.
- After learning XML and JS parsing, I implemented a search engine.
- Clicking on the books displayed would simply upload the text to the search bar—I couldn't figure out how to automate the search function.
- The first use of a footer, which included the website's social media links, and my initial attempt at creating a "Terms and Conditions" and "Privacy Policy" section.
- The first use of a favicon as well.
Click H E R E for the original registration design, H E R E for the original login design and H E R E for the original verification design.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: The recovery link will send you to the current recovery link.
Click H E R E for the third website design.
- I had not yet developed the habit of adding a favicon.
- This is where tabs were introduced (the first being the devotions tab), with the vision of making this website function like a browser.
- This was only the prototype design for version 4, so several elements were missing, such as the Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy, and Intro page.
Click H E R E for the prototype registration design, H E R E for the prototype login design. (I had not designed a new verification page) and finally H E R E for the prototype intro page. (Each redirect is either non-functional or will take you to the current design.)
Click H E R E for the fourth website design.
- I never went through with the prototype intro page "guide" design.
- Originally, there was also no "Side Panel" on the left of the page (though I cannot find that version).
- Including the "Side Panel" also introduced the idea of having a popups instead of a page redirects, but that didn't work too well. This concept is still under consideration for future implementation.
- This is also the version where I got introduced to API for the analysis aspect of the search engine. (Had not quite figured it out just yet)
