this is the utility room! space for everything that goes into keeping this place running.

this is where I keep the detailed update log, a fuller credits section and some more elaboration on the machine I run, and what I run on it.

Updates!!

• this page came slightly later than the frontpage updates section, so that's all going in one -- layout there's done (for now), it could use a fidget toy but it serves the utility and -- importantly -- *looks* complete. todo on there is the header and sidebar decorations (I have some plans), and then finally same for the content (which will be done differently in different sections and involve funkier css layouts, not looking forward to that). before that though, I'm doing functional passes for the rest of the pages, like the cafe and this page right here! (next up is the library, then the workshop). once all that's done, *then* I get to start making content.

• as per the frontpage, petrapixel's layout generator! absolute lifesaver for getting started when I didn't know how to use flexbox or grid from scratch. their tutorials on those were also *very* useful.
• other resources I used include W3Schools' html & css stuff, 32bitcafe's resource list, and many small lessons from many other websites by poking around with an inspect tool. try it some time! at least on Librewolf (so Firefox), the inspect tools are *incredibly* thorough and have saved my hide more than once!
• once again as on the frontpage, Onio and Myrrh! Onio's video put me onto this whole thing, and inspired me to look into it -- Myrrh's website, which I found through said video, forged my passion and helped me find the resources attributed above. ...and also led me to some Really Fucking Funny Websites, which always helps. and also the music on that page is so so so good and vanpage ate an hour of my life at *least* <3
• all my buddies on and off the indie web who complimented my tomfuckery (hi Vine thanks Vine)
• neocities (duh) (do I need to explain this) (no) (the answer is no)
