Colophon

A colophon is a page or section, like a footer, of a site that describes how the site is made, with what tools, supporting what technologies.

• This blog is built with zola using its own tera templating engine. (why?)
• All HTML and CSS, including the tera templates, have been designed from scratch. With some borrowing:
  • Styling for <kbd> adapted from this post by Dylan Smith.
  • Styling for <aside> based on this blog by Martijn Hols.
• The serif font is Valkyrie by Matthew Butterick.
• The sans-serif font is the common Roboto by Christian Robertson.
• Code editing happens in VSCodium.
• The posts are drafted in Obsidian.
• I am not using any generative "AI" services to write posts or code. I am not hosting images generated by "AI".
• The server is hosted in Germany by Windcloud, powered by rebuildable energies.
• Finally, I am tracking page views using goatcounter, allowing me to identify broken links, or popular posts. Mainly though, it's just motivating to see that people are visiting this site.
  To me, this provides a good balance of user privacy (for you) and server stats (for me).
  I'm not tracking any information about you, or your device. Merely which of my posts was accessed at what time, and optionally the referrer. An example log entry could be: "Monday at 10:00am 1 person accessed /colophon. They were referred by bsky.app"
