Toot

Realign

I just popped out a realign of the ol' personal website. I only say realign as I didn't rethink every single detail of the thing. I'd say probably 40% of the original HTML and CSS are there from old site, 70% of the PHP, and of course 98% of the content. It won't stay this way forever, so I figured I'd document a little of it for fun and see what kinda interesting tech is in there, if any.

@chriscoyier Superdig the vibe and balance.

Appreciate the notion of obliterating an about page and contact form.

Aside: I think the random button might not be working properly. (Try using it in a browser where you're logged out of WP.)

@glass DERP. I think I've tracked it down to the web host level caching, so I've hit them up to see if they can ensure that particular route is never cached.

@glass The host tracked it down to a weird NGINX config rule. Fixed! I know everyone was waiting with bated breath.

@chriscoyier I like "the home page is the About page" idea. Just made that change to my own site after reading this.

@chriscoyier I really dig the redesign! I've never seen Pigeonette before, but I really like how you've used it.

@chriscoyier Love the typefaces! Especially pegionette.

Just a small typo at “bit and wanted and excuse to use them”.
