I finally gave this site a visual refresh. Here is what changed. The background I drew a grass field in SVG and set it as the background wallpaper. It sits behind everything, fixed in place, with a gentle sway. In dark mode it dims so the text stays readable. I want the site to feel calm, like writing outdoors. The design I stopped using Simple.css and wrote my own stylesheet from scratch. The layout is simple — a centered column for reading, a clean header, and not much else. Every color and spacing value comes from a small set of variables at the top of the file, so changing the whole look is just a few lines. The site now uses the Inter font, which is designed for screens and easy to read. It also has dark mode that follows your device setting automatically. Other small things Tags are now small pill shapes instead of rectangles Post summaries on the homepage are longer and do not cut off mid-sentence Code blocks look nicer with a card-style background I added Prettier so the code stays formatted What did not change Eleventy still builds the site.
