A few days ago I decided I would try to minimize content consumption (YouTube videos, forums..etc) and use that time to build small projects using cool tech like SQLite (among others like Next.js or Blitz.js + Vercel) as the base of the stack.

I just finished the first one: hodlbitcoin[0] – a simple website to visualize your Bitcoin holdings value over time. It is powered by an SQLite3 embedded database, WASM (WebAssembly) SQLite client, and one GitHub Action (every day at 00:00 UTC it runs to fetch the Bitcoin price and insert it into the SQLite database). The code is open source and the README contains more info of the technologies I used [1]

Looks good. One critique I have is the slide-to-right animation with the chart. It's jarring. Animating the actual line from left to right or just letting the chart load in place would be better.

It was enabled by default. I just disabled it and now the experience is much better! Cheers, mate.
