Refactoring the shadowmaker has become a bigger headache than I had originally anticipated, but it’s for the long-term health of the system, so I’m sticking to my guns. This weekend added further drama when I finally stopped running away from frontmatter and embraced it for all my metadata. Sure, scattering #ch-command directives throughout the body of the notes was insane, but fixing it is going to mean more than just adding a few metadata fields. I may have to completely change the way I use Obsidian.
Today started with a bit of AI exploration looking at a bunch of layout concepts for the look of the new website’s landing page. Lots of weird and head-scratching proposals were made, but this one has some stickiness to it. I had been thinking that the featured article would be on the left, and the smaller “other” article boxes would be on the right, but now I’m digging this proposal, with the feature right in the middle of an expanded banner section.

The imagery of the banner seems a little “alternative medicine” for my tastes, but conceptually, this feels like something I can work with. Assuming I can make it work within the HTML template engine I’m using.
