About

I’m Tyler. I write FOSS software from time to time and I love to learn new things. This site is just an experiment for now. We’ll see how it evolves.

Find me on mastodon.

Colophon #

This is a static site built in public on codeberg.

The layout was inspired by Ben Crowder. The color palette comes from artwork by Helvetica Blanc. The dithering technique was inspired by Pixfect. Text is set in Libre Baskerville, with Fira Code for monospaced elements.
