About this Website

This is a static site hosted by Nearlyfreespeech.net.

This site is built from a Gitit wiki that I run locally. A static site is generated with this script, which basically wgets the site from http://localhost:5001/, minifies the CSS and Javascript with the yui compressor, cleans up the HTML with htmltidy, and compresses all text with gzip.

Templates and CSS

The templates and CSS are heavily customised from the default Gitit install.

The templates are written using HStringTemplate which is used by Gitit.

Most of the CSS is my own, with the following exceptions:

• Syntax highlighting is from highlighting-kate by John MacFarlane, also the author of Gitit.
• The cross-platform fontface CSS is generated by fontsquirrel.com

Javascript

Any fancy effects are courtesy of the jQuery library and a couple of nice plugins. If you have Javascript turned off everything should degrade gracefully.

• jQuery-collapse: Provides the collapsible menu and in-page content.
• Sly: Is used for page Scrolling.

Fonts

The fonts used on the site are from the following sources:

• Body: DejaVu Serif Book from dejavu-fonts.org
• Code: DejaVu Sans Mono from dejavu-fonts.org
• Headings: Libertine Serif from linuxlibertine.org
• Title: Franchise Bold from derekweathersbee.com/franchise
• Page and Menu Titles: Silkscreen from www.bottke.org/plus/type/silkscreen
