How it is made

Colophon.

Building in public includes the stack. This site is a build log, not a CMS. New entries are objects in a file. The rest of the site reads from that file.

The homepage, the log, the RSS and JSON feeds, llms.txt, and the sitemap all come from src/data/log.ts. Add an entry at the top. Nothing else to touch.

There is no dashboard pretending the week was full. The Now page is edited when the week actually changes. Quiet is a legitimate report — that rule is on the homepage and in entry 004.

Follow along by email, RSS, or JSON Feed. Each log entry has a Markdown version at /log/[slug].md. The whole log is at /log.md. Each field note has a Markdown version at /journal/[slug].md. The whole journal is at /journal.md. Models should start at /llms.txt and the dated card at /cite or /facts.json.

The official SIX33 marks — crown-trident emblem, lockups, wordmark — live in public/brand/six33 and render as the tab icon, the PWA icons, and the chrome on this site. Orange #FF6021 is the brand. Green is this log's own signal. A finished mark is delivery, not impact. The kit is on /brand; the machine copy is /brand.json.

The stack

  1. 01
    Next.js

    App Router. Pages are files. The log is data.

  2. 02
    TypeScript

    So the record stays typed as it grows.

  3. 03
    Tailwind CSS

    Utility layer under a hand-written stylesheet.

  4. 04
    Resend

    The follow-along emails, when delivery is actually connected.

  5. 05
    Vercel

    Host. Deploy on git push.
