Colophon#

This site is written and edited in Obsidian. I adhere to the philosophy of File over app. My plain text Obsidian files are automatically compiled into web pages using Jekyll and hosted with Netlify.

The color palette is Flexoki, which I created for this site. My Jekyll template is not public, but you can get similar results from this template by Maxime Vaillancourt.
