Website Changelog

Looking back on the progress of a project can be a great source of motivation, so I'm creating this changelog to look back on in the future.

Changes to articles will not be recorded here.


23rd July 2024

This will likely be the final entry to the changelog.
I've been working for too long on this website without consistently putting any content on it. I'm going to try to change that.
I have been working on some articles and other things. We'll see how things go.
As of writing, an older version of this website is hosted on GitHub Pages and hasn't been updated for months.
I've been experimenting with other free hosting services including GeoCities, so we'll see what we end up with, if anything.
I have a domain name in mind and should be purchasing it soon if all goes well. Hopefully it's the one you're on right now.

Something this changelog taught me is how many ideas can live and die in a short time. On the other hand, it also shows how much one idea can evolve over time, and even stick with you without you realizing.

= Slightly brightened text in dark mode for (hopefully) better contrast.
= The website is now split into better sections including the Software section.
= I am making progress once again on finding the confidence to publish the website and commit to making content for it.
