Homepage Redesign, Light Mode and More
Just a quick note documenting some recent changes to the blog. Nothing groundbreaking, but enough accumulated updates that I wanted to write them down.
Homepage Redesign
The homepage used to be a chronological list of articles; your classic default blog format. I’ve redesigned it into more of a two-pane “dashboard” feel. The reason? My content is quite varied: I have long essays and technical write-ups but also short TIL or notes posts (like this one!). Having a way to differentiate between them while also scanning across the titles of different types of posts felt really valuable.
I was inspired by this post which I stumbled across.
Light Mode Returns
A couple of days ago, a reader emailed me and asked if I could add a light mode to the blog because they were reading in a bright environment. Though personally I prefer dark mode, I appreciate not everyone agrees so it made sense to add.
