The twentieth episode of Wonders of Web Weaving is out:
In Episode 20, I chat with Sara, the author of sarajoy.dev and whimsica11y.net, among other things, the importance of web accessibility, screen readers, and the joy of exploring and making things on the web.
I hope you enjoy the episode!
Wonders of Web Weaving also has an RSS feed you can use to follow along from wherever you get your podcasts.
Ahhh, yes. Haven’t seen this in a long time. That’s a mistake. So good from start to finish.
👍 Recommended!
Official Electric
Every now and then you find someone who really owns their corner of the web. AJ Gonzalez (https://ajgenerated.com) is one: he builds his own universe on his own sites, and itch.io, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok feed into it instead of contain it.
His main project, Official Electric, is a fictional brand celebrating its "35th anniversary", complete with an invented corporate history. The homepage was recently streamlined. It's faster and more legible…

Added a /games page to my site.
It’s a catalogue of the games I’ve completed, am currently playing, and want to play.
There’s more I want to do with it, like reviews and maybe even guides, but pages for movies, TV and books are next.
Further to yesterday’s post about improving this site’s performance, one of the lead developers of Grav was able to diagnose the problem. Turns out its an unruly plugin. Disable it, and rebuilding the site takes 2–3 seconds, versus the 15 minutes I was experiencing. Trouble is, that plugin’s author is less than responsive, so I’m not inclined to raise another issue or submit another PR. The developer did suggest an alternative, which I’ll try, but for now I am going to disable the plugin before updating the site and see what difference that makes.
Later: Confirmed. The rebuild is essentially instantaneous. I wonder what will happen when I re-enable the plugin after uploading this addendum.
Later still: What the heck. I asked Claude for help fixing the problem, and it seems to have worked. Still undecided whether to create a PR given the lack of interest.
