There is a concept out on the internet of second brains and digital gardens: islands hosting a compilation of personal knowledge with different degrees of structure.

I have always been charmed by such concept, where people share notes, thoughts, and experiences in a less structured format, when compared to a classical blog, with the main purpose of personal consumption, yet being publicly accessible.

To do that, I integrated the digital-garden-jekyll-template by Maxime Vaillancourt to the site. I believe this is the right time to do it, since last summer GitHub finally added custom actions workflows for github pages deployment, thus making the template compatible with my setup 🎉

You can enter my digital “jungle” either from the 🌱 Jungle link the header or from the website root page.

I have not a clear plan on how the garden will grow and develop, hence why the nickname of a “Jungle” (I also liked the hint to the Guns N’ Roses hit). What I do know is that I will be leaving fragments and notes there, that might eventually level up to a proper blog post.

Still, a couple of TODOs are left for full integration (e.g., full search access via ctrl+m) and usability (sidebar index, header/footers, …), but those will come in the following weeks.

In the meantime, enjoy! 🌱
