It is written in VSCode. I typically use the Ayu Mirage theme but sometimes switch to Github Light. Krita is used to manipulate images, when necessary. It is deplyed via rsync from the terminal. I use Zsh and Oh My Zsh, with the Oh My Zsh git plugin getting heavy use. Source code is managed via git and GitHub. The font used in both VSCode and the terminal is Hasklig.

Post ideas are stored and managed in Notion and Logseq.
