Odds and ends—hopefully at least some interesting blog posts!
The base setup is based on duplone.github.io, see BSD-3. Further—less direct—inspirations include gwern.net and Practical Typography.
For various definitions of "notable".
-
Sidenotes with the help of Tufte CSS. Unlike most implementations, SideNotesHTML.hs on my fork1 of the
pandoc-sidenotelibrary supports arbitrary blocks to be placed inside of sidenotes. -
In comparison to pandoc's default, better syntax highlighting via the
pygmentizecommand line utility. -
All LaTeX output is pregenerated with mathjax-node-page and directly embedded in the HTML. This is both faster when loading the page, and does not require any JavaScript on the client side.
-
Automatic smallcaps for certain abbreviations, like
HTMLorGNU. As such, a font that actually supports this (instead of rescaling capital letters) is also provided. -
Section marks when hovering over a heading, linking to the respective section.
-
Citation handling with BibTeX.
Because building got more complicated, there is build.sh, which make
or make build calls. Most notably, this script—with the help of
mathjax-node-page—it pre-generates all mathematics. This also means
that one needs to clone this repository recursively, as math-node-page
is included as a submodule.
For speed reasons, make watch disregards this, so be sure to build the
website with make to see the final result.
