Colophon
How this site is made, and an honest list of everything it loads. Old books put this page at the back. We think websites should too.
The short version
Hand-written HTML and CSS. No framework, no build step, no bundler, no CMS. You can read every line of this site with View Source, which is roughly how we'd want to be judged.
Our own code on the home page is about 92 KB before compression: one HTML file, one stylesheet, two small scripts, and a logo we traced from raster to a single SVG path.
What loads, honestly
Three animation libraries from a CDN: GSAP,
ScrollTrigger, and Lenis for scroll
animation, plus a particle canvas we wrote ourselves. They're the
heaviest things on the page and we go back and forth about whether
they've earned it. For now, they stay.
Google Analytics runs on this website for visit counts. The apps are a different story: nothing we ship phones home with your filenames, your audio, or anything else beyond an anonymous crash count. The distinction matters to us, so we're stating it plainly.
Type
Satoshi for the wordmark and display, Inter
for everything you're reading, JetBrains Mono for
numbers, labels, and anywhere we're showing our work.
Color
The palette is mixed by hand. Khaos Violet is #a78ff2,
not the framework default it used to be, and every accent on every
page clears WCAG AA against its background, measured, not assumed.
Each product keeps its own palette on purpose: Delve looks like a
ledger, Synthscape looks like a signal. Same recipe underneath.
The point
This site exists to describe the apps, and the apps are where the interesting engineering lives: a custom renderer here, honest APFS accounting there. If the site ever gets more impressive than the software, we've made a mistake.
