This Guy Has Talent

This also means that I own all of my music, play it from a server I control, using storage I control, via a client I’ve written and all of the data is stored on my own infrastructure. I author my own charts and can do as much or as little as I want with the data. I enjoy being able to view my own listening habits and run whatever granular queries I want. I’ve integrated concert tracking with artist pages, I’ve added support for tracking upcoming albums and exposed a calendar subscription.

Look At The Pretty Colors

Yesterday I talked about some of the things I’ve done on the blog. Well, today, I’ve been under the weather a little, so I decided to go ahead and tweak my blog some more.

If you’re on desktop (i.e. not on mobile), look down at the lower right hand corner. See the theme name? Click that. Change to one of the provided themes and BAM! You get a new theme on my site. Honestly, the hardest part was adding in all the hex codes. The JS was fine, really just a redo of my light theme switcher. I did finally make all my css colors variables, so it will be easy to add more themes in the future, should I choose to.

Breaking Things, Fixing Things

More updates have happened on the blog. I have a new “link” post type, that will allow me to share links to things I find interesting. This was fun to set up, and took a fair bit of doing. I wanted it to appear in the main hugo feed, and I wanted the posts to appear a bit different. At first, I thought about having a different background, but that didn’t look right. What I did instead, was make the post underline and the metadata a different color. If you go to the home page and scroll down, you’ll see my first attempt at this. I like it, though I will probably tweak it a bit in the future.
