Twenty years of building websites. Client work, personal experiments, things I abandoned halfway through, things I’m still proud of. For the longest time they felt too scattered to present together. Turns out there’s a thread connecting all of it.

Most WordPress themes I tried? Div soup. Inline styles fighting each other. !important declarations stacked on !important declarations. Accessibility treated as a checklist item at best. Scripts loading for features no one asked for. I spent years fixing problems I didn’t create, which meant I knew exactly what I wanted when it was time to build my own.

So I built something for that. Dark mode only. Grid-based portfolio. Comments disabled with a single toggle in the Customizer, not a plugin. Emoji scripts, embeds, block library: removed entirely. What loads is what’s used. Security headers built in. Skip links, proper heading hierarchy, semantic HTML throughout. Lighthouse scores already green. I did the work so you don’t have to.

One place to put the work. Let it exist. Move on to the next thing. And while it was built for one brain, any creative who’s tired of fighting their tools should be able to install and use it.
