Problem
A place to keep project notes, dev notes, and occasional longer writing.
- 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.
What I built
This site. 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.
