  • Happy Guy Fawkes Night :-)
  • Calendar template
    • Tried rather unsucessfully to display the calendar and the content divs side by side.
      • Tried flexbox
        • Seems the Quarto css is interfering with the flexbox css.
        • Tried Article and Aside html tags :-(
    • I’ll have another go, but I think its time to move on.
      • Look at Quarto’s inbuilt formatting
  • Changing the title of the Current Blog to Now!
  • Quarto
    • There seems to be an anoying limitation where you have to maintain the same page format across the website.
      • For instance
        • Now!/Diary Page
          • On the Now!/Diary page ideally the todo section would be collapsible once all the tasks are complete.
          • I dont need a list of the dated progress pages. Having a calendar in the sidebar indicating which days has a post would suffice.
          • Click on a date would collapse the todo list and reveal the blog post.
        • Blog
          • Single Page
            • No issues
          • Multi-Page
            • Multi-page documents
              • The index page should be included in the Blog list.
              • The index page should be able to link to pages and sub pages.
                • So longer POC can be investigated and the results grouped.
        • Projects
          • (Current Behaviour) Projects should be separtate GitHub websites that contains Quarto Book structured documents. Done
