🚨 New tool: Impolighthouse

Not just “how fast is my site?”, but “why is it slow, and what does that say about our org?”

A deliberately impolite wrapper on top of Lighthouse, that calls out your organizational cruft, blockers & bad decisions.

I've read a number of posts about personal websites lately from different perspectives, all highlighting their value. This is my attempt to reflect on reclaiming my creative space and what it means to me.

Most of the internet used to be like this. This is actually the default, it took companies enclosing the internet and adding weird, soul-killing incentives to make people behave the way they do now. In a way, there is truly nothing special about Wikipedia except that it survived longer.

I made a typeface, it's called Flexflex 🔠

I've been working on this project on-and-off for many months. Very happy to finally release it!

Flexflex is a typeface that responds to spatial requirements rather than imposing them.

This will hardly be groundbreaking for seasoned Eleventy folk, but I wrote up my experience shifting to remote builds and scheduling automated deployments with Netlify build hooks and GitHub Actions.

I've written up my experience so far building a digital bookshelf with Eleventy and the OpenLibrary API. Obviously, it's not a particularly new or original idea, and there are already many similar write-ups—this just happens to be mine.

I previously said I wouldn't be posting here, but since I've got something to share, why not? I've been working on my music collection project again, introducing a way to organise releases around life periods.

I gave Bluesky a fair go, but it's not for me. I haven't built much of a following here, but anyone who wants to can connect with me on Mastodon @damianwalsh@mastodon.social. Most people I’m interested in hearing from seem to be cross-posting on both platforms, something I can't be bothered to do.

11ty Meetup Reminder! Tomorrow we have @davidmoll.net and @zachleat.com giving us 2 short talks - for all the details and add to calendar links, check out 11tymeetup.dev

P.S. How do you like our new share image? 🎈

I've been working on my music collection project again, documenting the development of "memory boxes" for release pages—including bonus side quests into psychology and knowledge management:
