As an aside, can I just say how refreshing this website is? It's 100% content, just text. Now view the html source, and be amazed. I daresay the author actually wrote the html by hand. I suppose it could be a very conservative and conscientious site generator that even respects line length, but I'd be surprised. Short css file for minimal style tweaks, and readable markup. Fitting that the article is about simplicity. When I first learned html (late 90s) this is what it looked like. Very nice.
- Iv 5y agoPossibly a pandoc generated html from markdown. My favorite way of doing things.
- Jorengarenar 5y agoSource code [0] is available on GitHub; looks like they wrote their own simple site generator. I've been thinking about something similar (maybe even simpler) for my blog too. [0]: https://github.com/susam/susam.net https://github.com/susam/susam.net
- susam 5y agoThank you for sharing the link to the source code. My simple site generator is based on my wife's project makesite.py[1]. In fact, I used her site generator for a few years. Later I reimplemented makesite.py in Common Lisp. As a result, it inherits the design, layout, minimalism, and simplicity of makesite.py.

- pxeger1 5y agoUnfortunately, the inline code is dark blue, unreadable in dark mode.
- susam 5y agoThanks for commenting about this issue here. I had accidentally removed the CSS code for pre, code, etc. in a recent commit. Fixed it now.[1] You should no longer see this issue after a hard refresh. [1] https://github.com/susam/maze/commit/1d58e13 https://github.com/susam/maze/commit/1d58e13
