That's it! I've finished coding the art gallery on my website! You'll be able to find ALL my drawings there, including that Haiku comic strip that I hadn't been publishing so as not to feed Meta. One more step toward digital independence.

After “a few weeks" I've posted a weeknote again - https://www.vanderwal.net/random/entrysel.php?blog=2138

commissions are open. if you've been sitting on an idea and wondering whether to do something with it, this is a reasonable moment to reach out.

i take commissions for poetry, short fiction, and SvelteKit web development – all listed over at https://ko-fi.com/ewancroft. the silver fire sale is running for another four days, which means reduced prices across everything before standard rates resume. if timing matters to you, now's the window.

anyone who supports me – whether through a commission or just throwing a bit of money my way – gets shown as a sponsor on my website. it's a small thing, but it's there.

**poetry**

i've been writing poetry as a serious pursuit for a while now. my natural register is understated – spare lines, concrete images, things left to sit rather than be explained – but i can work outside that if your brief calls for something else. i've written elegies, love poems, poems about place and memory and the kind of mundane moments that turn out to matter. if you've got an occasion, a person you want something written for, a feeling you can't quite articulate, or just a subject you find interesting, send it over. i'll work from almost any starting point.
commissions come with a brief back-and-forth to make sure i've understood what you're after before i start. the finished piece is yours.

**short fiction**

short stories are a different discipline – more room to develop character and situation, still tight enough that every sentence has to do something. i write literary fiction, quiet horror, character studies, strange realism. if you've got a premise, a scenario, a world you want explored in compact form, i'm interested. i'm also happy to write to a theme or mood if you don't have something specific in mind.
give me something to work with and we'll figure out the shape of it together.

**SvelteKit development**

on the technical side, i build SvelteKit sites. i work with TypeScript, Tailwind, and the AT Protocol ecosystem if that's relevant to you. if you need a clean, functional web presence or a specific feature built out, i can scope it with you and give you a realistic sense of what's involved.
i deploy on Vercel, work with pnpm monorepos, and have production experience across a range of project types. if you've got something in mind, reach out and we can talk through it.

**the silver fire sale**

four days left on the silver fire sale – prices are reduced across all commission types until it ends. after that, standard pricing resumes. if you've been considering it, this is the practical moment to act.
everything is listed at https://ko-fi.com/ewancroft. have a look at what's there, and if something fits, get in touch via the platform, by email at contact@ewancroft.uk or on Bluesky @ewancroft.uk.

I just learned about SpaceHey and this takes me back to the things we lost with bigtech.

It would be really great to get an invite!

Help me boost and maybe I'll reach someone who can invite?

I will probably cancel my current (very JSON-LD focused) website rewrite. It is not very nice to work with when editing *and* coding.
I'll do the next one in Rust too. But this time, I'll create one giant KDL file to configure everything (pages, colllections, feeds, …). I'll might also create a new URL structure (while redirecting all old ones) and add a native comment system. I'll definitely do a design refresh and restructure my navigation and footer.

@ricmac #Madblog has native support for #Webmentions, and unlike #ActivityPub they’re enabled by default.

I’ve tried to make it as simple as possible and avoid manual callbacks or special tags for mentioned links.

You put a link in an article, and when you save it Webmentions are sent to supported targets. Someone mentions your article from a place that supports Webmentions, and the mention is stored on your blog.

I'm starting a little public experiment. 🧪

I'm a complete non-programmer and I'm going to build a custom theme for Kirby CMS v5 — together with an LLM (Claude by Anthropic) as my coding partner. 😉

The goal: migrate my German blog kranzkrone.de from WordPress to Kirby, with a clean, minimalist design built (almost) from scratch.

Every step will be documented — the progress, the dead ends, the "why doesn't this work?!" moments. The code will be open on Codeberg. I'll blog about it and toot about it here.

If we hit a wall, I'll just show the code to someone who knows more. That's the beauty of building in public. 🙂

Proof of concept: how far can a curious amateur get in tandem with a powerful AI?

I'll/We'll find out. 😁

Ich starte ein kleines öffentliches Experiment. 🧪

Ich bin absoluter Nicht-Programmierer und werde ein eigenes Theme für Kirby CMS v5 bauen — gemeinsam mit einer LLM (Claude von Anthropic) als Coding-Partner. 😉

Das Ziel: meinen deutschen Blog kranzkrone.de von WordPress zu Kirby migrieren, mit einem sauberen, minimalistischen Design, das wir (fast) von Grund auf entwickeln.

Jeder Schritt wird dokumentiert — die Fortschritte, die Sackgassen, die „warum funktioniert das nicht?!"-Momente. Der Code liegt offen auf Codeberg. Ich blogge darüber und toote hier.

Wenn wir nicht weiterkommen, zeige ich den Code einfach jemandem der mehr Ahnung hat. Das ist das Schöne am öffentlichen Bauen. 🙂

Proof of Concept: Wie weit kommt ein neugieriger Amateur im Tandem mit einer leistungsfähigen KI?

Ich/Wir werden es herausfinden. 😁

After a few fix the feature is a success

I can now show provenance from ActivityPub aka the fediverse, Indieweb sites (webmentions) Bluesky and Mastodon
