← Notes

A place to think out loud

This is where I'll keep my writings and thoughts — half-formed ideas, notes to myself, things I want to remember. It's gated: only people I've explicitly allowed by email can read it. Everyone else gets a locked door.

How I add a note

Each note is a Markdown file in notes/. The fastest way:

npm run new "Title of the thought"

That scaffolds notes/YYYY-MM-DD-title-of-the-thought.md with the date already filled in. Then I just write. On the next deploy it shows up here, newest first.

Frontmatter is optional but supported:

  • title: — overrides the title (otherwise derived from the filename)
  • date: — overrides the date
  • draft: true — keeps a note out of the build until I'm ready

The look

Minimal on purpose. White page, a serif for reading, and a single touch of red — the same red as my morning app. In dark mode the whole thing flips to the morning app's palette. Nothing else competes with the words.

The palest ink is better than the best memory.

That's the whole idea. Write it down.
