Technical

This site is built using Eleventy, 'a simpler static site generator'. I adore 11ty - it makes it terrifyingly easy to add a new page, change the font, or do whatever the hell you want to every single page on the site. Behind the scenes, I use both Frontmatter and Static CMS to write the content for the site. Underneath, all of this is hosted on Netlify, although I'm looking to move over to AWS sometime in the future.

From pushing a change to publishing the page, Netlify takes roughly 45 seconds - it's magic!

Typography

Across the site, I use a few different fonts. These change occasionally, but at the moment, headings are set in Lora.
Most body text is displayed in Inter, a font I adore - despite it's sans-serify style, I always feel it has buckets of personality!
