Ground
Control.
Hi, I’m Sheraj, and welcome to my site! I’m building with AI, and this is where I log my builds and projects, and blog about the journey.
Things I’ve shipped.
A few projects worth a closer look. The rest live on the work page.
Ground Control — this portfolio
How I rebuilt the AstroWind starter into a calm, editorial portfolio and blog, with a steel palette, a comic avatar, and terminal-styled code blocks.
Kansai Colourmatch
A searchable database of 13,725 colour standards that answers one question — which Kansai colour comes closest, and how close is it really.
Learning Bytes
My first custom blog experiment: Astro on Cloudflare Pages, with Notion as the place where I could write and publish bytes.
From the blog.
all posts →Building Ground Control was more than just learning to code
Why I built this blog and portfolio website, how AI made it possible, and why I want Ground Control to become a place for documenting my works, experiments with AI agents, self-hosting, automation and all things tech.
Hermes Agent
Why I moved from OpenClaw to Hermes Agent — I can see what it's doing, and it learns how I work without being told twice.
The design language behind this site
A visual tour of the rules this whole site is built on — the palette, the type, the one spot of orange, and the comic panel that breaks the calm.
Like the site? Take it.
This whole portfolio and blog is open — Ground Control, the design system you’re looking at, layered over the AstroWind template (Astro 6 + Tailwind v4). Start a fresh project from AstroWind, or clone this site wholesale and swap in your own words and work. The Tron code blocks and the blog plumbing all come along for the ride.
Want the full kit? Every token and component lives on the styleguide.
