Edward Hesketh Covers 4 devlogs and 13h 34m

I think I'm ready to ship! I added a pride-coloured background behind the article view, and also made it get brighter in a circle around your cursor, for interactivity. Sadly, the cursor thing doesn't work on Internet Explorer, but everything else does! I also fixed an issue where the article view would extend beyond 100% of view space on mobile.

Since the last devlog, I went through all features of my website and got them fully working on IE11! I had to change a javascript for loop to use older syntax, and I got rid of the CSS variables. BUT it looks beautiful and behaves perfectly on every browser now!

Since the last devlog, I have added my face to the front page, and used a flexbox to put it side by side or above/below the introduction section.
Still need to test how this appears on IE.

Started logging the time that I spend on my website! So far, I have written an introductory paragraph, and summarized how I got started coding. I have also improved compatibility of the site with all browsers, by removing the use of flexbox styles - it renders perfectly even on Internet Explorer 11! I also set the font to default to the system-ui font of the OS that people are running to significantly reduce load times by not requiring a font download for the page to render.
