Some things I learned about Pug this week. Putting them here so I don’t forget. I think by now I know most there is to know about Pug. That only took 7 years of using it… :D! First up – mixin composition, you can use block as an equivalent to <slot> in other template languages […]

Cloudbestanden

Mijn notities blijven in sync; mijn desktop blijft in sync. Voor design werk is er Figma. Het enige dat niet gesynced is, zijn mijn front-end […]

So… experiments with Svelte. The 2nd post (read the first one first!) I showed the beta website to a friend. I said it should be fast. He replied: fast is an understatement. It’s instant.
