New style

This week while attending Scott Moss’ Build an AI Agent from Scratch v2 workshop at Frontend Masters, I discovered Brutalism.

Specifically, on the Cloudflare Sandbox & Browserbase web pages. I had seen this style before but never had a name for it.

Once I had a name for it, I fired up Github Copilot and did a zero-shot prompt redesign of my site:

Apply a Brutalist design to all pages modifying CSS only

It’s not going to win any design prizes, but I like it a little better than it was before. Hard to say how long I’ll keep it like this, but I’m sticking with it for now.
