Colophon

This site is a study in restraint. It is built for clarity, speed, and longevity.

Principles

• File over app: Content lives in portable Markdown files, not locked in proprietary formats. This site will outlive whatever platform hosts it.
• Designed to last: Built with stable technologies for the long term. No frameworks to deprecate, no dependencies to break, no features requiring constant maintenance.
• What else can I remove?: Every design decision starts with subtraction. Remove JavaScript, analytics, custom fonts, animations. What remains is what matters.
• Sustainability: Every byte costs energy. System fonts eliminate requests. Compressed images reduce transfer. No JavaScript saves processing. At 5.46 KB, this page achieves an A+ carbon rating—less than 0.01g CO2 per view.
• Content-driven layout: Generous whitespace serves reading. No decoration competes with words and images.

Constraints

• No JavaScript for core reading. Works with scripts disabled and on slow connections.
• No analytics or tracking. Your reading remains private.
• No external dependencies beyond hosting.

Stack

Built with Jekyll and deployed on Cloudflare Pages. Domain by Porkbun. Source on GitHub.

CSS lives in the document head, so there are no extra stylesheets to fetch. Images are optimized and sized appropriately. Good scores come from restraint, not tricks.
