About this site

 

This website is built with the Tailwind CSS framework and Jekyll, a static page generator. It’s hosted on GitHub Pages. It doesn’t use cookies or any kind of tracking mechanism and gathers no data beyond what is tracked in GitHub’s server logs.

The sidenote concept used in my essays and notes has been developed by Edward Tufte; my implementation is based on the tufte-pandoc-jekyll theme.

The note infrastructure is based on Maxime Vaillancourt’s Digital Garden Jekyll template, from which I’m using adapted versions of the Jekyll plugins to prepare notes for publication. The note network visualisation is built with D3.js and cola.js.

The notes themselves are maintained with Obsidian.

The fonts used are:

• General Sans: Headlines, captions and navigation
• Literata: Body text and sidenotes
