Welcome to justinverstijnen.nl v2

Welcome to my completely renewed website. The past month I’ve been busy rebuilding my old Wordpress website to a completely new website based on GitHub Pages. I wanted to enhance this website on the following areas:

Light/Dark mode
Better experience on mobile devices
Uniform pages and posts
Scalable and future-proof solution

Why this new update?

My old website was great, but with Wordpress and some specific requirements I had, it became obsolete to me. I couldn’t find a great skin other than I already had for the complete lifecycle of it which I still really like. It required me to have around 300 lines of extra CSS to get the website to my likings but still had an inconsistent experience across multiple devices. Also I needed around 28 plugins to make everything work, making it a mess sometimes.

Getting started

Welcome to my blog section. In my blog posts, I describe the steps I took to make things work and/or explain how it works. The navigation on this page is relatively easy and I will do my best to explain all features of the blog to you as a manual.

1. Light/Dark mode

The website has a native light mode and dark mode in the top right corner. This makes the webpage a better experience for low-light environments.
