#projects/site is a tag dedicated to the mechanical work done on this website. In general, this site is grown up in two places:
The writing and note-taking portions of this vault are managed with Obsidian, a fantastic notes app; and
The site — which takes the notes and publishes them — utilizes a customized version of the Quartz framework.
My goal is to grow out the site itself to better fit the style and content I’m aiming for, in order to build it into a better system for recording my thoughts and making the bearable ones publicly available. As I work more on Quartz, as well as mechanical customizations to Obsidian, any related notes will be published here.
