My personal site, notes, and the pillars of what I'm building. Jekyll on GitHub Pages. Live at https://peterp22.github.io.

Two kinds of content

• Pillars — evergreen pages in _pillars/, one per theme (gaming, strength, the work, calling, lessons). These are the spine of the site. Grow them over time.
• Notes — dated posts in _posts/. Short, timestamped writing.

Write a new note

1. Add a file in _posts/ named YYYY-MM-DD-some-title.md.

2. Put this at the top (the pillar line is optional — it files the note under a pillar):

   ---
   title: "Your title here"
   date: 2026-06-22
   pillar: strength
   ---

3. Write the note in Markdown below the second ---.

4. Commit and push. Live in about 30 seconds:

   git add . && git commit -m "note: your title" && git push

Fill in a pillar

Open the matching file in _pillars/ and write below the front matter:

Pillar	File	pillar: value for notes
Gaming → Code	_pillars/gaming-to-code.md	gaming-to-code
Strength	_pillars/strength.md	strength
The Work	_pillars/the-work.md	the-work
Calling	_pillars/calling.md	calling
Lessons	_pillars/lessons.md	lessons

To add a new pillar, drop another file in _pillars/ with title, order, and summary front matter. It appears on the home page automatically.

Edit your profile

Name, role, bio, and links live in index.html. For a real photo, drop it at assets/img/me.jpg and follow the comment near the top of that file.

Look and feel

Light mode, Nocturne Blurple palette. Colors live in assets/css/style.css under :root; the Bricolage Grotesque fonts are in assets/fonts/.

Run it locally (optional)

Not needed to publish. For live preview:

bundle install
bundle exec jekyll serve

Then open http://localhost:4000.
