The Beginning, part three

Getting into styling and layouts and loops.


Styles

The tutorial goes on to implementing styles. Importing a global stylesheet is obviously helpful, because it ensures the site remains consistent.

Integrating JavaScript into the style definitions is tricky - I’d like to do a map / dictionary, but couldn’t quite get it to work yet.

Layouts

Built out a basic layout set for the overall blog, and for the blog posts. Benefits: quickly write the content of the blog post, without messing with formatting because it’s all inherited. Easy to write, easy to read. Can also make it AI-agent friendly with simple layout. I can’t be the only one who hates the design garbage for so many clickbait sites.
