致 程序 · A Birthday Site

A surprise birthday gift for 程序 (序哥), launching 2026-05-05.

How Lei updates the site after launch

You don't need to write any code.

Adding photos

1. Open the photos/ folder
2. Drag your photos in
3. Use simple file names like wedding-2020.jpg or adi-laughing.jpg
4. Tell me which section to put them in (timeline / son / letters)

Adding videos

• Drop into videos/
• Keep videos under 30 seconds (long videos slow down phones)
• Longer videos: upload to YouTube as Unlisted, send the link

File naming rules

• Lowercase letters only
• Use dashes, no spaces
• Good: wedding-2020.jpg, adi-laughing.mp4
• Bad: IMG 4839.JPG, 照片.jpg
