Since I found myself desperately lacking modern front end skills, I decide to spend some time in creating an example Angular app.
This article covers the following questions:
This time I do not plan to change much of my color scheme. Instead, it is an attempt to fine-tune details and deepen my understandings.

So far I have been living with a make-do color scheme. One of the reasons is that while Kahuna has lots of awesome options for controlling the color scheme, not everything is achievable from the settings, and some CSS hacking is needed. Of course, I am not afraid of CSS hacking. I just did not have the time to do it from the beginning.
Technically, I should have written this article while I set up WordPress for the first time. However, this brings up the ancient paradox of “chicken or egg?”
Now that the egg is ready, it’s time for the chicken to hatch.
Having no favicon sucks. Hence, here is my first attempt at giving this site a favicon. I would also like to give my main website one, but I guess working out the blog icon first would be easier.
In the previous post, I talked about installing a plugin called LaTeX2HTML and gave a quick test of its functionality.
Now, let me explore more of its functionalities, and fix the style discrepancies whenever I find them.
A new era has begun: the era of reformation and colonialism!
And for our Clanricarde, it is also the era of constant war against the Kingdom of Saxain.
This is part III of my Clanricarde game. It includes the first conquests outside Éire.
This time I survived the early game. So I will start writing about this run. And hopefully, this game will be a fun one.
I will try to use Irish names over the Anglicized names. Sometimes they are hard to parse, and I will include the “better known names” in parentheses.
Pretty much all WordPress themes, Kahuna included, rely on Google Fonts. Google Fonts is a nice collection. But it is not large enough, and thus it occasionally becomes boring. Want a late-18th century Didot-style typeface? Use Playfair. Want a classical humanist serif typeface? Use Alegreya. These have become knee-jerk reactions, because there are just so many options for a particular requirement.
Hence why bored people, like me, turn to commercial options. I bought a webfont license for Adagio Serif a few years ago, and it seems a good opportunity to try them out.
