Pretending I'm Carmack

Named after the Carmack era “.plan” file, this section lists out everything I’d like to discuss here, as well as some general website development nonsense. I, uh, don’t really format my notes super well, so this is more of a stream of consciousness sort of deal.

Should I keep this running? Like multiple pages? How much to I care about archiving my plans?

OK, I kinda want to make this section of content into a page that sits on the top bar, like a “Current Tools” section or something… hmm. Maybe both.

Maybe a projects section? Game dev section? Food? Lol

Brand the site - Icon

Home Blog / musings? Projects Game Dev Music (later) Home Improvement (later, or maybe part of projects)

Do I want a side bar? Find an example I like. Maybe not.
