On Documentation

Documentation and Design Practice with Pippin Barr

Personal Infrastructure

Local First

1. no more loose files
2. declutter and find method for documenting project process
   1. generally going by field / year / project (?) (maybe year doesnt make sense because overlap?)
      1. versions (as files or screenshots)
      2. notes
      3. finished object (local website files etc)
      4. images (of presentation ...)
   2. what to do with things on drives ? (that I dont want to download everything from)
3. have all websites as files in one place? (no but structure so I can find them again + localhost)
4. export and sort notes from obsidian

Personal Website

1. implement static site generator (pelican, Hugo) for personal website
2. try out to build and use a git repository (maybe just for something small)

CSS e-mail

2 Day Workshop Initiated by Declarations at Varia Rotterdam. We looked at e-mails and forms to write css into this or as correspondence.

• 

  CSS e-mail (transform each reply in a different radius)

• 

  CSS e-mail by Kim and Kiara

• 

  CSS email (hiding text using ::before pseudo elements)

• 

  CSS e-mail (using unicode-range to target and style specific character)

Not all Mail clients allow to write/ view HTML and CSS. the two we used were Proton mail (which allows inline style tags) or Thunderbird. The later comes with an extension that allows you to open and edit e-mails in HTML so you can easily add a style tag to the head.
Another fun experiment was to add some HTML and styling to an e-mails signature. Some mail clients allow you to either upload a file as signature or add text in HTML or Markup language. The styles in one signature then infect a whole e-mail thread.
