Resources I Used §
The font used in my site banner is Jacquard 24 by Sarah Cadigan-Fried. It is provided under the Open Font License. Sarah has made several ornamental pixel-type fonts, which, interestingly enough, are actually designed for knitting. They are all available on her GitHub profile linked below:
For the patterned backgrounds on this site I have used heropatterns.com by Steve Schoger, a very cool resource for customizable, SVG-based repeating patterns. They are provided under a Creative Commons attribution license.
Building this Site §
This site is built using Hugo, billed as a fast and flexible static-site generator (SSG) written in Go. You can learn more about Hugo at gohugo.io. My Hugo theme is adapted from lugo by Luke Smith. You need a theme to get started with Hugo, and lugo is a very minimal sort of tutorial theme that has enough to get you going while still being easy to rewrite to meet your needs. See Luke’s Hugo tutorial on YouTube.
Hosting §
This site is hosted on GitHub Pages, arguably the best (least limited) free static site host.
