About the Site

The site is built on “static pages” technology. Such projects can be stored for free directly on GitHub.

For convenience, the Jekyll technology is used, extending the basic capabilities of static pages. The convenience lies primarily in the fact that HTML tags can be completely absent from the text, and the text is still formatted properly. The pages look like plain text.

You can edit the text using the github web interface, or you can download the project and edit it locally.

Instead of HTML, MarkDown pages are used, which, in addition to standard HTML, allow using simpler and more convenient text markup methods.

If you want to add something, you can create a copy of the project, make changes to it, and send me a request to include your changes in the main project.

Actually, if you are working on a task and agree to share the result, I see this as a fairly convenient solution.

If anyone is interested, I will describe in more detail how to deploy a copy of the project locally, as well as how to easily make changes from github and how to work more conveniently with the project locally. If necessary, I can prepare a docker container that will allow you to deploy everything you need with a couple of commands. For Windows users, this will most likely require a virtual machine.
