Web Design.

I generally work with WordPress-based websites but I have working knowledge of html, php, javascript and css coding. I have also created dynamic websites usingin php/mysql and this site represents my first foray into a static web framework using Hugo.

For less elegant/code-focussed examples see the php, python & coding section

Hugo

This site is based on the Hugo static website framework. It was built from scratch and features custom shortcodes, templates and data-driven galleries.

readingwithapencil.com

Reading With a Pencil was originally a standard-template wordpress site hosted on wordpress.com. It was built as a professional author site and featured blog entries and book reviews.

I rebuilt it as a Hugo site — now hosted on Netlify and maintained updated via GitHub.
