Colophon

This website is build with Eleventy and some of its plugins. I especially love using the more than awesome Eleventy Image Plugin to optimize the pictures on this site.

The repository is stored on Github and deployed on Netlify.

External Sources

The site is using "Lexend Deca" for headlines. I've chosen the font stacks "System UI" and "Monospace Code" with the help of Modern Font Stacks for texts and code.
I'm using instant.page to speed up the navigation between the pages on the site.

Code & Development

Nunjucks is the template engine of my choice. I'm writing pretty modern but vanilla CSS and some PostCSS does the dirty work in the background. I've written an article how I generate CSS with PostCSS.

Calculating font sizes and spacings and making them work together to assemble a nice looking website has always been hard for me. This time I've had some help from the fluid calculators at utopia.fyi and I'm pretty happy with the result.

All code for this site is written mainly in Visual Studio Code which is connected to a Github codespace. I'm again and again impressed by the performance of the codespace compared to a local Docker environment.
