As an aside and unrelated to the content of the article ... but the form of the article, with footnotes in the margin, is really useful.

- dist1ll 3y agoThanks! It's inspired by this https://edwardtufte.github.io/tufte-css/ https://edwardtufte.github.io/tufte-css/
- ghosty141 3y agoThanks for sharing this! Looks fantastic, I'll definitely incorporate this into my own blog once it's finished.
- chrismorgan 3y agoIf you’re interested in the general concept of sidenotes and labelling figures in the margin, here’s my take on it for further inspiration: https://chrismorgan.info/blog/2019-website/ https://chrismorgan.info/blog/2019-website/, with https://chrismorgan.info/blog/rust-fizzbuzz/ https://chrismorgan.info/blog/rust-fizzbuzz/ exhibiting figures. Do search around for other sidenote implementations, too. I like the markup and presentation I end up with, but you’ll also find other approaches to mobile support in particular, involving things like checkbox hacks to toggle visibility, or just flat-out requiring JavaScript.

- chrismorgan 3y agoGenerally speaking: sidenotes are excellent, footnotes are fine, endnotes are terrible. On the web, as a typically-not-paged medium, “footnotes” practically always actually means endnotes.
