Week 27 of 2024

Weeklies are my notes of things not big enough for a blog post but worthy of being mentioned and linked to. Find all of my Weeklies at /weeklies.

• KASSO #1

• An alarmingly concise and very hinged summary of what it was like to build this site from scratch

  Keenan moved away from Squarespace and decided to build his new site from scratch with Eleventy and documented his process in this fantastic article.

• Taking regular screenshots of my website

  Alex shared their great project of setting up a GitHub Action to run once a week on Monday morning to take a screenshot of their website and storing it to the repository to preserve the history of UI changes. I immediately copied the action to my own repository and got started with capturing my changes.
