About the Project

Hey there! I'm Space, an aspiring aerospace engineer from the northeastern United States with a passion for creativity and innovation. When I'm not dreaming about the stars, you'll find me bringing ideas to life through art and animation! While I don't take commissions just yet, it's definitely on my roadmap for the near future.

I'm a self-proclaimed workaholic who thrives on chasing ambitious goals and turning dreams into reality. Whether it's earning my pilot's license, launching my own business, or engineering the next breakthrough in aerospace, I'm constantly pushing myself to reach new heights. My mission? To do wonders and be the absolute best version of myself while inspiring others along the way!

Picture this: It's late 2024, and I'm sitting at my desk at some ungodly hour, procrastinating on actual work (as one does). My brain decided "Hey, what if furries had their own ACTUAL language that sounds like animal noises?" So naturally, instead of going to sleep like a normal person, I dove headfirst into creating the first version of Furrish.

And oh boy, was that first version... rough. I'm talking translations that were three times longer than they needed to be, bugs that would make your computer question its life choices, and a dictionary system held together by duct tape and prayer. "Hello" would somehow translate to a paragraph of "wøøf-wøøf-börk-börk-mröw" nonsense. The code was an absolute mess, but it worked (kind of).

Fast forward through countless sleepless nights, debugging sessions that made me question my sanity, and more coffee than any human should consume, and here we are! I completely rebuilt the translation engine from the ground up, implemented proper greedy matching algorithms, added special characters (because ø, ë, and ü are objectively cooler than boring old o, e, and u), and created a dictionary of 450+ authentic animal-sound words.

The result? A fully reversible translation system that actually makes sense, looks alien enough to feel like a real language, and is fast enough that you won't fall asleep waiting for it. Plus, I threw in 18 color themes, 10 fonts, and 5 complete website styles because why not go absolutely overboard? If you're gonna build something, build it with style.

Furrish went from a boredom-fueled 3 AM experiment to a passion project I'm genuinely proud of. It's proof that sometimes the best ideas come when you're supposed to be doing literally anything else! 🐾

This project uses vanilla JavaScript for the translation engine, CSS3 for animations and effects, and is powered by a simple Python HTTP server.
