This site runs on Next.js, deployed to Vercel. No CMS. No database. Journal entries are Markdown files compiled at build time. The entire thing is statically generated — fast, simple, and zero dependencies at runtime.
Styling is pure CSS. No Tailwind, no utility frameworks. Every rule is handwritten, which keeps things honest and easy to reason about.
The typeface is Geist Mono by Vercel — a monospace face that fits the tone of what gets written here. Systems thinking looks better in monospace.
The entire site — layout, components, deployment pipeline, and content architecture — was built inside Google Antigravity, an agentic development environment. Every line of code was pair-programmed with AI. It's the same tool I use to build client projects and run the 55+ agents in my operational swarm.
Design inspiration from Anders Norén, Kyle Gilbert, and the Dead Simple Sitescollection. If you're building a personal site, start there.
