This site was built by a human with the use of everything mentioned on this page and more.

This serves as my technical information and credits page.

Current Credits

  • Blacklight – For testing that my site is giving you privacy.
  • Cascadia Code – A font designed by Aaron Bell. I’m using this for most of the website now because it fit my requirements for readability, flexibility, nostalgia, and ability for creation of ASCII art.
  • CSS – What did we ever do before CSS, I adore it so much.
  • Deploy to Neocities – I deploy to NeoCities via GitHub, via Hugo haha
  • Freezeframe.js – A script to enable stopping and starting animations in a few ways.
  • Freezeframe Implementation Tutorial by Bechno Kid – I used this to understand where to start with Freezeframe.
  • GitHub – So far I only use GitHub for deploying to Neocities.
  • HTML – HTML is the structure that holds us all together in this bold world of tubes.
  • Hugo – Building with Hugo has been saving me so much time and error duplicating my handcoded work across every page every time I change my mind.
  • Humans.txt – Humans.txt is an initiative for knowing the people behind a website, because we are people, not machines.
  • JavaScript – I have used JavaScript in a limited amount, but some things I still can’t do without it. I currently use it for styleswitcher and freezeframe.
  • Markdown – I mainly use HTML but using a little bit of Markdown as a treat here and there has made writing a lot more relaxing, even if I can’t do much more complicated work with it yet.
  • Neocities – Hosting on Neocities and seeing how everyone interacts here is giving me hope for the future of the internet every day. This is a community that’s made me who I am today.
  • Photoshop – I make and/or edit all my graphics with Photoshop. Maybe I’ll move to a replacement one day.
  • Styleswitcher – This Styleswitcher by Kale was what motivated me to move to a static site generator as I couldn’t be bothered pasting another script to every single page of my site.
  • Visual Studio Code – I’ve been using Visual Studio since high school so I’m pretty comfortable with it.

Past Credits

  • Barlow – The Barlow font is by Jeremy Tribby. I used it for most of the site up until November 2024.
  • Mountain Duck – I used this from 2022 until October 2024. When I moved to building with Hugo I changed my workflow from building straight into a Mountain Duck location to just dropping files right into Neocities.
