Homepage

A collection of projects and topics that I find interesting.

This website is written in common lisp on the backend, on top of the Radiance library.

The frontend is mostly pure html/css with very limited javascript. The markdown rendering engine turns latex equation forms to a form MathJax can parse to give pretty equations inline.

All in all this gives most pages good performance over lower internet usage.

Server specifics

Lisps are interesting languages, they are so abstract they come all the way back around to the ultimate flexibility you get with assembly.

The server runs on SBCL:

It uses the Radiance web application environment:

Markdown rendering by 3bmd library, allowing for good extensiblity:

Finally it's using NGINX as a front end reverse proxy & cache:
