Is this the perfect 404 page? [CSS only]

GitHub repo: https://github.com/AntiKippi/errorpages Live preview: https://kippi.at/public/errorpages/ I've spend the last few days overengineering HTTP status code error pages. It started with me wanting an aesthetic, glitchy 404 page with a bit of "cyberpunk" and "hacker" vibes while still being simple and JS free. It ended in this project. wdyt?

What it does

Simple, elegant and beautiful HTML pages for every HTTP error status code - AntiKippi/errorpages

This is a gorgeous yet simple and elegant template for 4xx and 5xx HTTP status code error pages. It features a dark, "hacker"-like atmosphere utilizing the incredible Iosevka font and a glitch effect. It's written in pure HTML5 and CSS, no JavaScript needed. The font has been stripped down to the ASCII character range to keep the size reasonable (~17KB vs ~1MB). Additionally there is a JSON with error information and a small build script to put the error information into the template and generate the respective pages. All client and server error codes listed in MDN are covered. 420 is also included just because 😎. Click on the GIF to get to the full page. Note that the 418 and 420 pages…from github.com

    URL: http://reallygood404.com/ I wanted to put together a showcase of some great 404 pages since there seem to be a lot of hidden gems. Would love feedback and other 404 pages that I haven't seen/found yet if people are willing to share.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
