The brief I gave myself was short: one place for everything I make and think, that I will still want to update in five years.

Decisions

Content is files. Every project, essay, note and experiment is an MDX file in a folder. Adding one creates its page, its row in the index, its sitemap entry, its social card and its RSS item. There is no CMS, no database and nothing to log in to.

Verbs, not nouns. The sections are named for what I do, not what the pages are: work, build, think, explore. The homepage is a single sentence built from them.

Typography carries the design. One serif, one monospace, one accent colour. No hero images, no gradients, no cards floating on shadows. If a page isn't working, the fix is in the words or the spacing.

Unfinished things are allowed. Notes carry a growth stage, and experiments carry a status. Publishing a half-formed idea is the point of a digital garden, and labelling it honestly is what makes that comfortable.

What's next

  • Syntax highlighting for code blocks.
  • Backlinks between notes.
  • A search that covers everything.
  • #web
  • #writing
