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. + +*curl up in bed* + +[RSS]: https://spacekookie.de/rss.xml +[sourcehut]: https://git.sr.ht/~spacekookie/website +[public inbox]: https://lists.sr.ht/~spacekookie/public-inbox |
