pietas.dev

This site. A place to keep project notes, dev notes, and occasional longer writing.

Built with Astro and MDX. Content is stored as markdown files in version control. No CMS, no database, no build pipeline more complex than astro build.

The design system is hand-rolled — a small set of CSS custom properties covering color, type, spacing, and radius. The type stack is Source Serif 4 for prose, Inter for UI, and JetBrains Mono for code.

Goals

• Keep a record of projects and decisions.
• Make it easy to add notes without thinking about the site itself.
• Keep the stack simple enough that I actually maintain it.
