Calling people who write their own #websites by hand, or appreciate those who do!

Do you have a favourite #links page style? It's been ages since I've composed a website manually. I'm avoiding CMS for now, just doing it the hard way with #html and #css, but want to make an attractive table of links to other sites, and a bit of blurb about them.

Seeking minimalist style and maximum #accessibility .

Thanky'all

@MattMoose wouldn't call it favourite, but it works. https://hayobethlehem.nl/about/blogroll

@MattMoose I just use a grid driven by html bullets.

@MattMoose I uploaded a template of my personal website:

For an easier implementation of accessibility and responsiveness I used Bootstrap5.

You can check lighthouse-metrics.com that it got good scores (also in accessibility).

@MattMoose Mine is just a simple list: https://shellsharks.com/blogroll with some associated links for each respective blog/individual

I like Dave Winer’s blogroll though - http://scripting.com/?tab=links

[mkj@social.mkj.earth]

@MattMoose I just make it an unordered list <ul> (by way of Markdown in my case).

I think it works pretty well. https://michael.kjorling.se/blog/tag/links/

@MattMoose Here's mine. https://artlung.com/blogroll/ though that is always subject to change (rightly so)

@MattMoose i personally prefer the classic <a href="url here">some text</a> to make hyper links

[aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@MattMoose here's a non-specific page from my website that has hyper links on it http://zone.dog/braindump/spline_fields/

@MattMoose I misread your post. This is probably a better example https://zone.dog/braindump/arty/ For the pages that are primarily references to other resources I usually use a <ul> list of the links. I often also try to include a link to a cached version on archive.org (denoted by a floppy disk in parenthesis next to the main hyperlink)
