Nothing is made alone

This site was designed, directed, and obsessed over by me, but it wouldn't exist without the tools, sounds, and open-source work of others. Here's who made it possible.

The slaps

Yes, the stickers actually make a sound. The slapping effect comes from freesound_community on Pixabay. Try clicking the portrait a few too many times.

The stack

Built with Claude Code as my co-pilot, Eleventy as the static site generator, and Scaleway for EU hosting. No frameworks, no bundlers, no build tools beyond what 11ty gives you out of the box. Vanilla HTML, CSS, and JS, the way the web was meant to taste.

The typefaces

Set in Instrument Sans by Rodrigo Fuenzalida and Aaron Bell, with JetBrains Mono for numbers and code. Both are open source under the SIL Open Font License, whose terms travel with them: Instrument Sans and JetBrains Mono. Both are served from this domain rather than a font CDN, so reading this page does not hand your IP address to anyone else.

The human

Design, direction, copy, and the questionable decision to add screen shake: Inti Valderas Caro.
