About Me 👋

Hey there! 😄 My name is Brennan, I'm a 28-year-old Queer Métis JAMstack developer and content strategist from Winnipeg, Manitoba and currently reside in Calgary, Alberta. I completed both the Full-Stack Developer Program at InceptionU and the Growth Marketing Bootcamp at OnRamp, and I'm looking to help those that need web development work done, or searching for ideas and management for their next content project.

I would also love to volunteer my time to contributing to open-source projects! I love creating and tinkering with small, static websites and projects. I'm a big proponent of putting an emphasis on accessibility and the A11y project in web development.

I'm always looking to work with people that are hopeless idealists like me, as well as who are interested in creating and working on cool, interesting, and meaningful projects! Shoot me an e-mail if that sounds like your cup of tea.

Will have to look into the issue and resolve it.

Japanese characters in the TAGS page

Thanks for the great theme!
As I can see, in the TAGS page we have Japanese characters (see below) marking each entry for each tag. Is there a way to change to Latin characters or regular bullet points/numbers?

TOC error

Hello. Thank you for sharing your great blog template!

I'm trying to learn how to write posts. So I made one and then upload it.
However, the display was totally different from my localhost.
The thing is that the toc(table of contents) display the whole content instead of its titles or subtitles.

So, here is my post address.
and here is markdown file address from my github.

I even did the "toc : false", but it does not work. Can I know how can I solve this problem?

Wrong mathjax rendering

In my site, I have following markdown:

---
title: Vim Commands
tags: programming
toc: true
comments: true

    - command
        - 輸入go這個字串30次: ` 30igo "esc" `

        - how to paste from a named register k: ` "kp `
        - after I yank a texts and delete other texts, how to bring back the original one?: vim will save the last yanked item in register ` "0 ` , so press ` "0p `  on the keyboard.

But I got some strange math rendering like below:

Do you have any clues about solving this problem?
Btw, thanks for the great effort for making this theme and I really love it! <3

For borrowing ideas

Firstly, very nice theme and well put together. First time I’ve seen one that has a dedicated section for daily journal entries. I think that’s a great differentiator and something 99% of blog themes ignore. I’ve been playing around with journal.txt and if that can be integrated into a blog. I have it working and it’s nice just typing into a single txt, committing it and having Github actions build the posts and github pages host it. However, journaltxt doesn’t have many configuration options.

I noticed you talk about integration with Obsidian and I’d also found this theme. Likely you may have too but there could be some good stuff in for helping enjoyment-work along.

Build issue - due to ... potential "[..]Javascript will need refactoring[..]" ?

I'm not deploying in Netlify but in CloudCannon, ... and i'm having a build issue there, i reported them :

Hi CloudCannon,

While importing a (Jekyll) repo i get

Jekyll 4.0.0 Please append `--trace` to the `build` command for any additional information or backtrace.

x Your build failed, make an update and try again.

Their answer mentions a potential JS cause of... i'm just reproducing it here below:

...
I have taken a look in to your site and the error seems to be coming from an asynchronous function in

assets/js/contextmenu.js

I commented out the async function getRelatedHTML and

function showRelated and the site built. I believe this Javascript will need refactoring and looked in to.

FYI,

A Dark Monochromatic Theme

I created a site with your theme and It is the best theme for Jekyll , but it really misses a dark theme. So , a Dark Monochromatic Theme is really needed like in Gwern.net . A theme switch button would be great.
