Website
This website is built using Jekyll, a simple, blog-aware, static site generator written in Ruby. I do not like Ruby, but Jekyll is a very awesome project and it does its job perfectly.
This website is 100% hand-crafted. No template code from others is used here...
This website is making use of the following software
- Isso - A commenting server similar to Disqus
- Jekyll - A simple, blog-aware, static site generator written in Ruby
- jQuery - A fast, small, and feature-rich JavaScript library
- lighttpd - The webserver (The best webserver in town)
- Lity - An ultra-lightweight, accessible and responsive lightbox
- Lua - A powerful, efficient, lightweight, embeddable scripting language
- Material Design Icons - Open-source iconography for designers and developers
- PHP - A really nice generell purpose scripting language for the web
- Ruby - A dynamic, open source programming language
- sorttable - A JavaScript library to make tables sortable
- xw3 - A CGI research project based on Jekyll, developed by me
This website looks best using a Mozilla based web browser like Firefox. Sure, it looks fine in other browsers I've tested, but Mozilla renders CSS more gracefully than the others...
This website mostly should work even when JavaScript is disabled in your browser, but some dynamic functions like the contact form or comments would not. Content will always be accessible even when JavaScript is not supported.
This website is mostly static, but some parts are dynamic using a CGI and a FastCGI. Some pages are using cookies and Lua and PHP scripts, but other parts are being generated using Python, Ruby and other languages...
Logo
The logo of this homepage was created at that time I registered hanez.org in late 2000. It was my brother Jakob who took some files from the web and merged them! :) Thank you, Jakob!
