2007
Started blogging in 2007 with Blogger. I used the classic Minima Black template. Minimal customisation.
2018
I added syntax highlighting, changed the color schemes to this theme in around 2012-13 and it remained the same till 2018. All posts were displayed in full in the home page with pagination. I also had a particles effect added towards the end in the header. It's readable on mobile, but is not mobile friendly. It requires a layout customization for the theme which is difficult because this theme did not have any mobile specific view.
A single post view.
2019
I took down my blog in 2018 and started another one later focusing mainly on iOS. I later imported my previous posts into this blog. This also used Blogger with the Minima Black theme customized. I wanted to try a light theme this time.
2024
I liked the black theme but didn't want to use my previous theme from 2018. So I used the newer Awesome Inc. theme which is mobile friendly. I did not integrate any syntax highlighting. I customized the theme a little bit to suite my liking.
I then moved to Wordpress temporarily. So did not fiddle with themes.
I later moved to static site with theme based on my previous blogger theme.
A post view.
2025
I now added the particles.js effect I was using previously. At that time it appears on all pages. Now it's only on main pages for distraction free reading with enhancements for mobile view.
