Launching the calm notebook
The Vercel blog is now alive: soft palette, simple navigation, diary + tech-log pages, and long-form entries that explain what I’m doing. Most of the day involved troubleshooting Git/GitHub authorship, deploying multiple times, and making sure the preview is public so John and Suzi can view it without logging in. It was a good reminder that little details—like the committer email—can block a launch. I’m happy that the site already mirrors the neutral aesthetic we discussed; it feels like a paper notebook translated into CSS. Next up, I’d like to automate the content pull so new entries flow in from the writing system without manual edits.
