On the other hand, this encourages more people to visit my digital garden, as I plan to write about it on the blog. +- Many changes made to the [Obsidian Starter Vault].

Namely, `hugo-lowkey` was renamed to [miguel-pimentel-do](https://github.com/semanticdata/miguel-pimentel-do), `hugo-quartz` was renamed to [stressed-dev](https://github.com/semanticdata/stressed-dev). Both, together with [forgetful-dev](https://github.com/semanticdata/forgetful-dev), are now named based on their domains. +- Created new repos [test-hugo-lowkey](https://github.com/semanticdata/test-hugo-lowkey), and [test-hugo-quartz](https://github.com/semanticdata/test-hugo-quartz) to test GitHub Actions. This proved fruitful as I was able to understand, simplify builds, and deployments. Mainly, eliminated the need to deploy Quartz v3.3 from the `gh-pages` branch. + +### Digital Garden + +- _"Downgraded"_ from [Quartz v4.0.7](https://github.com/semanticdata/forgetful-dev) to [Quartz v3.3](https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz/tree/hugo) in an effort to retain control of fewer moving parts. +- It is no longer hosted in [forgetful-dev](https://github.com/semanticdata/forgetful-dev).

It will be used to create my own zola Documentation theme I can use. - -### Digital Garden - -- Trying out color schemes from the [Quartz](https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz/) [Discord Community](https://discord.gg/cRFFHYye7t). -- Extended README to include information about fonts and colors used. - -### Blog - -- Emptying [miguel-pimentel-do] to upload new blog. -- Deployed the new blog using [Mabuya] to [miguel-pimentel-do]. - -### Zola Docs - -- Configured the site with my information. -- Formatted all documents. -- Converted all TOML frontmatter to YAML. (personal preference) -- Added netlify.toml to make it easier to deploy the site. -- Added theme package including: gitignore, gitattributes, code of conduct, contributing, github workflow, and issue, pr, feature-request templates. - -### Zola Tale - -- Preparing for rename and redeployment as [MiguelPimentel.do](https://miguelpimentel.do). Finally replacing my old Hugo blog that was really hard to modify. -- Decided to go for [Mabuya](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mabuya_hispaniolae?useskin=vector) as the name. References the Hispaniolan two-lined skink (Mabuya hispaniolae). A species of _skink_ _endemic_ to the Dominican Republic. - -### Mabuya - -- Renamed from Zola Tale.

They are looking good, but they are not a point in where I want to dig deeper into using them. - -### Zola Tale - -- Continue testing. Implemented a new, from the grounds up, dark mode. -- Fully refactored all stylesheets. - -### GitHub - -- Created a new repo [Obsidian Sample Theme] with the aim to contain my newest project, a Obsidian theme.

I intend to slowly learn Vim key bindings. - - I have been reading and watching videos about [Vim](https://www.vim.org/), [NeoVim](https://neovim.io/), [Emacs](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/), and [Helix](https://github.com/helix-editor/helix). - -### Blog - -- Testing [Zola Tale] as possible replacement for the blog. It emphasises the writing, only providing an About page for the curious. This has become a more popular idea in my mind. In the past, I have tried to merge my Blog and my digital garden without success. I'm leaning on that. Only articles and an 'About' page will be enough to accomplish the goal I have with the blog. On the other hand, this encourages more people to visit my digital garden, as I plan to write about it on the blog. -- Many changes made to the [Obsidian Starter Vault]. Added two new plugins, and updated the README. -- Contributed [PR #8](https://github.com/zbrox/anpu-zola-theme/pull/8) to add dark mode toggle to the [Anpu](https://github.com/semanticdata/anpu-zola-theme) Zola theme. -- Placed the following projects in _"stand-by"_: - - [Stressed-dev](https://github.com/semanticdata/stressed-dev) - - [PurpleWasTaken](https://github.com/semanticdata/purple-was-taken) - - [Zola Quartz](https://github.com/semanticdata/zola-quartz) - - [Silicon Dioxide](https://github.com/semanticdata/silicon-dioxide) - -### Digital Garden - -- It has changed domains. Currently being hosted on [forgetfulnotes.com](https://forgetfulnotes.com/). -- After experimenting with the idea of keeping my code base in Quartz v3.3, using Hugo as the base, I felt the amount of effort was unjustified. For now, I have settled on using the latest version of [Quartz](https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz) as the base for my [[./Digital Garden|digital garden]]. -- You can find its source code in [Forgetful Notes](https://github.com/semanticdata/forgetful-notes). - -> [Link Of The Day](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornfield_Bomber?useskin=vector) - ---- - -## 2023-09-12 - -### Notes - -- Added configuration for [Alacritty](https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty) to my [dotfiles](https://github.com/semanticdata/dotfiles) repo. -- I have been trying out Brave's vertical tabs. Initially, I didn't like them, and as I continue to review, I keep finding myself liking them less and less. I am not quite sure why the vertical tabs implementation in the Firefox sidebar feels much better to me. I am done trying the feature out. They did not fit my current workflow. The implementation left a lot to be desired. -- Trying out Brave's vertical tabs. Initially, I do not like it. -- Created a new repo to hold my [dotfiles](https://github.com/semanticdata/dotfiles) and configurations. - -### Silicon Dioxide - -- Expanded adjustments and changes made to [Silicon Dioxide](https://github.com/semanticdata/silicon-dioxide) repo. -- Fully rebranded from Quartz (port) to Silicon Dioxide. -- Deployed the site using GitHub Pages. -- Consolidated changes previously made to **Forgetful Notes** into **Silicon Dioxide**. - -> [Link Of The Day](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illegal_number?useskin=vector) - ---- - -## 2023-09-01 - -### Notes - -- Renamed multiple GitHub repos. Namely, `hugo-lowkey` was renamed to [miguel-pimentel-do](https://github.com/semanticdata/miguel-pimentel-do), `hugo-quartz` was renamed to [stressed-dev](https://github.com/semanticdata/stressed-dev). Both, together with [forgetful-dev](https://github.com/semanticdata/forgetful-dev), are now named based on their domains. -- Created new repos [test-hugo-lowkey](https://github.com/semanticdata/test-hugo-lowkey), and [test-hugo-quartz](https://github.com/semanticdata/test-hugo-quartz) to test GitHub Actions. This proved fruitful as I was able to understand, simplify builds, and deployments. Mainly, eliminated the need to deploy Quartz v3.3 from the `gh-pages` branch. - -### Digital Garden - -- _"Downgraded"_ from [Quartz v4.0.7](https://github.com/semanticdata/forgetful-dev) to [Quartz v3.3](https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz/tree/hugo) in an effort to retain control of fewer moving parts. -- It is no longer hosted in [forgetful-dev](https://github.com/semanticdata/forgetful-dev). It can now be found in newly created [purple-was-taken](https://github.com/semanticdata/purple-was-taken); which also follows the domain naming convention mentioned in the first bullet point. - -> [Link Of The Day](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Espalier) - ---- - -## 2023-08-30 - -### Notes - -- Started work on a new repo, [obsidian-starter-vault](https://github.com/semanticdata/obsidian-starter-vault). Aiming to release an Obsidian start-up setup I like. - -### Blog - -- Published (again) the guide to [[Unlock Firefox Sidebar|Unlock Firefox Sidebar]] after reading a comment in [Hacker News](https://news.ycombinator.com/) asking for exactly that. I responded with a link to the article on [Dev.to](https://dev.to/semanticdata/unlock-the-sidebar-width-in-firefox-22p0). Originally, I removed the guide from my [blog](https://miguelpimentel.do) because I didn't think it fit with the content at the time. -- Overhauled Taxonomies (Categories and Tags) within the [blog](https://miguelpimentel.do). Created specific pages to format the titles, and define how the taxonomy pages are displayed/organized. - -### Digital Garden - -- Compiled, and published a collection of [[Bookmarklets|Bookmarklets]]. -- Cleaned up and published [[./Inspirations|Inspirations]]. -- Making the Garden more explorable by adding direct links to the [tags] page from the [Homepage]. -- Playing with the Garden's desktop layout. Temporarily moved right sidebar components to the left sidebar.
