With the new Now section, it feels like taking a small step back in time, to when my website was a window into my life: the books I was reading, the sports I was practicing, the things I was learning, and the thoughts I wanted to share
Maintaining the simplicity of the website, new small animations have been added to make the user experience more enjoyable compared to the total static nature of each element that makes up a web page
An infinite timeline of all my posts over time. No more social media, no more Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or whatever
Sustainability is a fundamental element for the future of our planet and our well-being. Now this site has a new page that contains all the information related to the environmental impact
A simple gallery of images that I took and that I want to share
The newsletter contained my thoughts and opinions. Now these are integrated directly into the weekly logs
The website is now even lighter and faster. All images have been compressed without loss of quality and the code has been cleaned up
New music library containing some of the songs and albums I love the most ❤️
Now, RSS feeds contain the full text of the post and not just a brief preview. The RSS feeds of the weekly logs have also been structured to provide the user with only the weeklies of the current month
Added descriptions to each image in blog and weekly log
New button to share a blog post in your favorite Mastodon instance 🐘
Blog and Weekly are now compatible for use via RSS feed
Info page, this page! Contains all the important events that the website has had over the years
A new page to enclose all the links to social networks and projects that I care about and dedicate myself to in my free time
Together with the fonts, Google Analytics is also completely eliminated and replaced by Goatcounter, a free and open source project
Goodbye to Google's management of fonts. Now the site's fonts are all managed locally
After the blog, the weekly logs are born which contain all the weekly news and information that I want to share with the world
Restyle of the whole website. Removed all bindings with Bootstrap and JavaScript. The interface has been redesigned with a simple and minimalist style, useless information has been eliminated and essential information becomes the focus of each page. Pure HTML and CSS only 🤯
The scripts and libraries have been updated and the code has been cleaned. All pages have been redesigned for greater readability and usability. New icons, cleaner font, linearity, and continuity of the pages
All lists of past years of books, music, games, shows, and sports will be managed locally and no longer through Google Sheets. To date, the music library, books, expenses, and the list of past games have been redesigned
All images on the site are managed locally and no longer via GitHub
All images can be opened as an external link to be viewed in all details
Animations have been improved to be smoother on desktop and mobile devices
Every single writing and text has been analyzed and made as simple and fluent as possible by the reader
Redesign of all images in a web format and centered on each page. The "That's me" section has new, perfectly themed and clean cover images
Best wishes for the first year online! 🥳
A simple animated navbar with the profile picture and social media
New section "That's me" with music, sports, books and others
Change skills' colors with gorgeous gradient tonality. Each blog post has a representative image and a readable font. Everything is responsive and fits on any screen
