I’ve updated Tiny Theme for Micro.blog with a few quick changes & bug fixes. Improved blockquotes, fixed horizontal scroll bug, added accessibility improvements, improved link styling, added pagination to category pages, & fixed alt text for logo. You can upgrade to 1.0.5 on the plugins page.

Introducing the Tiny Theme for Micro.blog

Recently, I’ve been working on a new theme for Micro.blog for my personal use. Others have expressed interest in using it on their site, so I decided to make it available for anyone. I hope you enjoy the Tiny Theme.

Tiny Theme for Micro.blog

Overview

My goal in making the theme was for it to be as functional as possible while also being lightweight and blazing fast. It doesn’t include any added scripts or custom fonts. On the CSS side, it’s fully responsive without size related media queries. In fact, the only media query used is for dark mode.

Tweaking the Design

You can easily tweak elements of the design by going to the Micro.blog Dashboard and navigating to Design → Edit CSS.

  • Use CSS variables to make wholesale changes to the colors used throughout the site.
  • Change the sizing of the entire site simply by changing the body font-size. Everything automatically adjusts...

I have a few things to finish, but my custom Micro.blog theme is nearly complete (see my blog). It has no added scripts, is fully responsive, the only media query is for dark mode, & it doesn’t load special fonts. Hopefully I can finish soon. I plan to make it available if there’s interest.

I’m getting close to wrapping up a simple theme design for Micro.blog (as seen on my blog). I need to tie off a few loose ends and work through (learn) what all needs to be done to make it easy-to-install for others.

Watching my son’s tee ball game during some absolutely perfect weather today.

Spent a good portion of the day reprogramming non-smart door locks at our office. So that was fun.

For the third time, I’m returning to Micro.blog. I know, I know, indecisive, always chasing, can’t make up my mind. But perhaps it’s telling that I keep coming back to the same place? And of course, had to do a new theme.

I need a teleprompter app for iOS that supports:

  • Custom font face, size, & color
  • Custom bg color
  • Custom scroll speed
  • Presentation Remote Support
  • Supports AirPlay

That’s it! Every one I’ve tried attempts to be so much more and clutters the interface way too much.

Alright, had to rethink things again. Here is where I’ve landed for my current home and Lock Screen setup.

I’m looking for a used iPad Pro 12.9” (with FaceID) with Magic Keyboard if anyone is interested in selling.

Finished The Boys From Biloxi (Grisham has always been a comfort read for me) and just started The Lincoln Highway. I loved A Gentlemen in Moscow by Amor Towles, so I’m excited for this one.

We went for a nice family hike in Broken Bow today. Both kids were up for the adventure and handled it like pros.
