A Work in Progress

This website is (and probably always will be) a work in progress. I opened my neocities account years ago and uploaded some pages outlining a personal project I was working on at the time but it wasn't untill earliyer this year that I decided to create a personal site. I started out with a few pages written in html and some CSS I cobbled together but I quickly realized that managing even something simple like a navigation bar in html was too tidious and error prone to contine.

Since then I have swiched to the Nikola static site generator. I am still using the sites original CSS. I'v created a Nikloa theme that looks almost the same as the site did before I started using Nikola. Once I polish things up and do some testing I'd like to submit my theme to the Nikola Themes repository.

In the mean time, please enjoy my work in progress!
