Colophon

Information about this website and how it was built.

This site utilizes the static site generator Hugo, and is presented using a custom theme created from scratch by me. It’s built on a system of design tokens, modular patterns, and a minimal visual design that highlights the content.

The color palettes are organized and manipulated with help from the excellent macOS color app Colorslurp. Graphics are manipulated via Figma, and Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator (they don’t need a link).

Typefaces used are "Montserrat", sans-serif for headings and the device default font stack of -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif for body copy.
