Howdy, it's that time of year again where I apparently do design
|
||
|
|
things on this website (the last article is from exactly 2 years ago).
|
||
|
|
Apologies if you've never been to my website and only use the [RSS]
|
||
|
|
feed. Also: you're cool!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In previous iterations of this series I tended to fundamentally change
|
||
|
|
the way that the website worked, either by changing the way that the
|
||
|
|
html was generated, or by cutting down/ adding categories. This time
|
||
|
|
I'm doing none of that.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Indeed things are getting simpler but mostly on the CSS side of
|
||
|
|
things. I was able to delete about half of my CSS which is a pretty
|
||
|
|
cool. The biggest change in the way the website looks is the article
|
||
|
|
overview and the article pages themselves.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Generally I didn't like the card design style very much anymore so I
|
||
|
|
wanted to change that. But I also wanted to make it simpler to see
|
||
|
|
all my articles at a glance, without any summaries. I feel this makes
|
||
|
|
the blog feel more "web log-y", which I like. It also means it's now
|
||
|
|
consistently bright text on dark background and I think I've gotten
|
||
|
|
the typography down enough to make it all pretty.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Anyway, there's more things I wanted to do but those will come later.
|
||
|
|
I should also point out that my primary code host for this website
|
||
|
|
isn't github anymore. It's now hosted on [sourcehut] and
|
||
|
|
collaborations are still welcome (if you see a typo or have general
|
||
|
|
comments), albeit not with pull requests anymore. You can submit
|
||
|
|
patches to my [public inbox] which I have hinted at in a previous
|
||
|
|
article.

In post-congress news I seem to have caught a cold, so: bye.
