Hi everyone, I made this website using a tool called Quarto. It’s free. It allows you to use markdown, python, JavaScript, etc. in the same project. It can output an HTML site, books, dashboards, wikis, etc. Basically, it takes all your code and converts it into the format you want to publish in. You don’t need to know how to code to use it, but markdown is necessary. This is great if you want to include data visualizations in your publications. The link is a site I built using this tool and serves as an example of some of the built-in features.

I found this this trend/project where a bunch of bloggers are sharing their default applications, and Robb Knight is grouping them altogether via github and the link above.

Definitely a cool project, thought I'd share if anyone's interested in reading them or doing their own. Mine's towards the bottom as "Nate" if you're interest in checking out mine.

This is a project I'm running for a bit more than a year now. It allows you to discover new personal blogs by simply pressing the "random" button and being redirected to a post from a random blog. You can also subscribe to random post by RSS or follow the mastodon account at @[email protected]

Check it out and please submit your (or your friend's) blogs.

TL;DR: quality over quantity

A working library is a Mandy Brown's blog about work, reading & technology.

The design is nice and clear, but the best part of that blog, IMO, is the writing style. The author knows their way in writing and made me search for meanings of words a lot. Another interesting part is that the author quotes books often and provides links to their own reviews of them along with relevant information, such as where you could buy it.

In this blog post viskanv explores concepts he wishes he would have known when he was writing songs as a teen. A lot of these points could be easily applied to other fields, which makes it a good read for anybody doing creative work.

Check out the other posts of that author, they have been blogging a lot so there's much to see.

Multilingual blog with guestbook and links pages as a little bonus.

The writing is chill and doesn't seem to be limited to a certain topic, which, IMO is good.

The whole website is neatly styled whilst at the same style sticking to the minimal design bearblog pushes.

So go ahead and check it out yourself :)
