The Papirothèque
My personal website
In the past year or so, I've pondered making my own personal website, where I could post basically whatever I wanted to share with the world.
Not really like a blog, but like a collection, a library, a digital "bibliothèque".
Aaaaand, here it is :) That's how the idea of the Papirothèque came to be a reality just now. It's still barebones and lacks so many features I'd like to implement. But it exists!!! Really, you should try to just make things exist, and that's it. Create them now and polish them later!
It didn't take me longer than 3-4 days to have a fully-functioning basic website with an aesthetic I really liked.
The idea behind it
My idea is for it to be one of the many respites and breaths of fresh air the nostalgic old-web revival community has given me all this time.
I absolutely love browsing through people's handcrafted websites, and I hope they at least enjoy the look of mine, even if there is no content yet!
Plans
The main plan I have for it is to share free resources with everyone, as well as give it my own personal touch.
There are so many pages and tools I have saved in messy .md notes that I have to condense to share with you all!

Created this post to keep it as a dev diary.
Heyy!
How is it going my fellow internet travellers?
I have been using Obsidian to take most of my notes, but I’m still not used to saving random links completely unorganized.
Some categories like gardening help me keep things in order.
This last spring I started gardening on a small scale at home! It’s not all been successful, and we have quite hard winters here and very long summers. So I ran into some trouble on the way. I will share some notes I took this summer with you!

I got this idea from watching the video How Much Food Can I Grow in 1 Year?* by Just Alex*.
He seems to harvest his plants at different times, and I thought that I wouldn’t always have my phone in hand to keep track of such thing were I to have a garden like that. So it would be nice to keep it in my notebook, and therefore to have a good system to then be able to archive it digitally.
Things that would be great to calculate:
-
Water
- How much water do I need
- How expensive that amount of water would be
- Impact of that water consumption, viability
-
Weather
- Temperature, humidity, measurements in general
- Weather patterns and their effects
- Rainfall
- Seasons
-
Materials
- Cost of materials
- Environmental impact of materials
- Source of materials
-
Harvesting
- Harvesting times
- Quantity and quality

I share this since it might be useful for you guys, and as somewhat of a template of what a directly .md copied text could look like here. I tried to paste it directly from wordpress to VSCode, and it failed successfully! I had to do it manually after all, lmao
Beeeeees
I might not have pets nowadays, but I love bugs that visit me.
Amongst them I had some giant fuzzy bumblebees get marinated and absolutely high on my sunflowers’ pollen!!! Enjoy the babies
The autumn feels
Notes on the autumn feels
I have that "autumn is coming" feeling I love. The end of summer. The cooler sunny days. The feeling of wanting to be active. I don't want to be depressed. I've felt anxious yesterday, I don't know many things about myself. I will just enjoy the moment while listening to Air - Cherry Blossom Girl.
