As I mentioned in previous posts, after quitting social networks, the need for a place to share thoughts and reflections noticeably increases, and for me, this need led to the creation of this version of my blog as a full site-blog. It archives all previous blogs, social media posts, handwritten notes, along with some works and projects.

The previous version of the theme I built became overly complex, completely deviating from its original path, turning into something strange and unwieldy. As a result, with shifting expectations and plans, I decided to design a new version of the theme that feels more intimate, with a subtle nod to skeuomorphism.

The result, after a few hours of design and a day of coding, is what you see here. After some refinements, I’ll release the code on GitHub.

Postscript: Back when we wished for the current web design and development tools, creativity in designs was thriving. Now that we have those tools, our designs have become copies with a fixed structure, and that’s not good at all.
