One of the first things my outplacement coach told me was that I ought to be posting to LinkedIn regularly. I knew I wanted to have updates specific to this website here on my blog, and I figured I'd just have to cross-post them manually.
It turns out that's not so!
In my last blog post, I used a diff to show how my SVG files had changed.
For those who don't know a diff is an operation on two files that shows a graphical representation of how one is different than the other.
They look like this:
| on the command line | in a nice UI like GitHub |
|---|---|
 |  |
After creating my logo, I wanted to turn it into a re-usable React component that would respond to theming, and let the logo variant be controllable by properties, so that essentially, I would only need one component that I could use wherever I wanted a logo
| expanded | compact | compactSquare |
|---|---|---|
I didn't intend to create a bunch of brand graphics. I just knew I was going to have to replace the default docusaurus logos with something.
I really like Docusaurus, but I also find there are some things it's missing. Happily, one of the best things about it is that it is, at bottom, React, which means you can add the things you find missing.
This post is a catch-up post to explain the purpose of this website, and how I got to this point. Going forward, I intend to post whatever is going on with development of this website here.
