Reviewing an old todo list

Reviewing an old todo list

In my blog post Game plan for this site I had the following check list

- Goal 1
    - [x] Setting up site in Deno & Fresh
    - [x] Set up for deno deploy
    - [ ] CSS container queries
    - [ ] Color Swapper
    - [ ] JS Sets
    - [ ] Web components
    - [ ] Explore WASM
- Goal 2
    - [x] Setup Blog
    - [ ] Add comments - Do I want this?
    - [ ] Add tags
    - [ ] Add RSS Feed
- Goal 3
    - [ ] Recurring - 4 blog posts a week for the month of July (20 by the end of the month) - Do I want a checkbox to let me 
- General Site goals
    - [ ] Generate about page
    - [ ] Re-buy domain & Connect
    - [ ] Work page

Lemme write a bit about how this is all looking

Goal 1

Looking through this goal 1 was more about learning new things. Ive been learning as I persue this but definitely have not done all the points that I wish I had. This is all interesting info and I'm not sure how I want to play with alot of them. That said - Ive always dreamed of a button on the page to change the color pallet so maybe I just do that.

Goal 2

This area is probably my best spot right now! I did add comments, tags, and an rss feed to all blog posts. Feels really good!

Goal 3

This was a pipe dream I had a lot of personal stuff going on last year. I think if I can end up doing a blog post a month I'll be really proud of my work.

General site goals

Generate about page - this has transformed to my now page Which I'm pretty proud of. I have a load of automation with that, have messed with vibe coding, and like to show it off. All that said - I'm disappointed with the styling of that page (and the whole site) so maybe that is worth some effort

Rebuy domain - done deal! I'm really proud of getting this back up and running - neat that I have a space in the web that is all my own

Work Page - This is something I'd like to do, but im unsure how important it is for me

Going Forward

I have a couple of ideas for the site and this blog. I have two blog ideas that are early on but wanted to get going and want to focus on a style overhaul. The blog ideas are:

  • Writing about my recommendation asks a third of the way through
  • Balancing typing with forward movement

Then as for the style overhaul I dont know where to begin. I think I need to spend some time doing research of what I like then try applying it to this.

An additional spot I was thinking of is making a image viewer for my sons pictures. that way he can show off his pictures in a safe space
