Redesigned site
- 1 min“Design cannot rescue failed content.”
– Edward R. Tufte
This static website is built using Jekyll, and hosted by GitHub Pages. And after almost two years of using my heavily modified version of the Hyde theme, I decided to redesign the site.
I would like to say that I redesigned it to make it more minimal, and more readable. To make it more responsive, and more accessible. Those are all true, but the real reason was that I had made so many tweaks to the JS and CSS in the previous site, that it had just turned into a bunch of spaghetti. I tried to clean it up, but my relative lack for familiarity with the languages, made this more frustrating than I would like. So I decided to just start from scratch, and use a more modern theme.
The new theme is Indigo by Kopplin under the MIT license. A copy of this license is available on this site in license.md.
I really like it. It’s minimal and focuses on putting the important information front and center. It’s also responsive, and has a auto dark mode based on system setting. I’ve already made several tweaks to the theme, and I’ll be adding more stuff in the future.
