Trly.gd Built in
Trly.gd was my first real website. It was not really a website, but a drop-in replacement for the browser’s default search engine. It redirected your queries to the right search engine based on the keywords you used. For example, “images:dog” would search Google Images, “en2fr:dog” would translate words to French, “wen:dog” would search English Wikipedia and so on.
It ran untouched for over a decade. When I rebuilt my website from scratch, I took a few minutes to rewrite the original script in Python, enable HTTPS, and disable server logs. It’s still there, serving dozens of searches every day.
