About This Website
To create this website, I used
- ERb aka erb aka Embedded Ruby aka eRuby…
Why does this tool have so many names? Here I use it as a web page template language. - nanoc, a programmable generator of static websites.
I generated earlier versions of the website with Webby, but nanoc is getting more development (maintenance & enhancements) nowadays. - Ruby.
Useful for configuring and extending nanoc…also for millions of other things. - Textile/RedCloth, a markup language used to generate HTML.
- CSS, the basis of the responsive yet super-quick-to-download design used for most of this website, excepting a couple of pages about SQL that include code listings and wide charts. (Try resizing your browser window, looking at this site using different devices, browsers, and emulators, etc. Whee!)
- Text editors. :-)
- Genuine 100% natural electrons.1
1 Electrons created artificially in particle colliders such as the LHC may be present within this website in insignificant quantities (less than 0.0000000000001%.)
