I spent several hours today working on my website, and I like the way it turned out. The regular links in the lists have been changed into buttons. I tried to make it so that the buttons shrink/depress when clicked, but it moves the rest of the buttons because of how the list template I’m using structures the layout of that part of the pages. I could probably edit the list template so it doesn’t do that but I don’t want to take the time to do that right now, and maybe it’s a bit too complicated given the overall minimalistic feel of the website. I also tweaked the size and scaling of the text and the links at the top of each page. Someone I know pointed out that it’s awkward on desktop, but not too bad on mobile, so hopefully it’s much more balanced between the two in terms of user experience. Some other things I did include removing the SoundCloud link from the top of each page, since I plan to not upload there anymore, changing the text on the front page, and re-writing the page for my public-domain microtuning scripts on GitHub since I accidentally deleted the Markdown source file. And of course (as far as I can tell, at least) I fixed the RSS feed for the website. It turns out that the main problem was how I was naming my Markdown source files for each of the pages I wanted to be in the feed. For the pages I wanted to include, I was supposed to not have an underscore at the beginning of the file name, but I didn’t know that and now I do, so I changed them, and after fixing another syntax error in the RSS feed source file itself, it works now. I think one of the next improvements will be to add some more pictures to the website and to add the latest article and latest music I’ve released to the front page, besides just adding articles and music and stuff. I may even update the website again this week.
