Specs

I aim to write so you don’t need to skim. There’s an in-house style guide that you’re welcome to read and remix.

Written on an old MacBook Air (with the good keyboard) or iPhone 11 Pro (the sensibly-sized one).

Hosted on Cloudflare Pages, generated with Hugo.

In the past, you might have seen the following (excellent) typefaces: Big Shoulders by Patric King; Public Sans by USWDS; Lato by Łukasz Dziedzic; Inter by Rasmus Andersson; IBM Plex by Mike Abbink and Bold Monday; Whitney, Decimal, and Gotham by Hoefler & Co.; Source Serif Pro by Adobe; Concourse by Matthew Butterick; Athelas by Veronika Burian and Jose Scaglione; San Francisco by Apple; JetBrains Mono by JetBrains, Philipp Nurullin, and Konstantin Bulenkov; Charter, Verdana, and Georgia by Matthew Carter.

This site should look good in all modern web browsers—please let me know if it doesn’t.
