This journal is set in Doves Type, designed by Robert Green (2013-2022). Headline appears at 21.25px, Text at 20px. Inline code and technical specifications are set in Fira Code Light, with ligatures enabled.
For textual emphasis, Doves Type’s historical lack of bold or italic variants is respected through the use of small capitals with subtle letter-spacing — a practice common in Arts and Crafts movement printing. Occasional use of bottom highlighting and left-bordered blocks provides additional emphasis options that honor the typographic restraint characteristic of the original Doves Press.

Built using Hugo 0.137.1
with the Doves Deadline theme, this site relies on carefully chosen tools and typography. Primary typefaces are Doves Type and Fira Code Light, served in WOFF2 and WOFF formats with font-display: block. Colors are #FF7900 (accent), rgb(248, 245, 240) (background), and #232323 (body text).
Drop caps are implemented with browser-specific adjustments, particularly for Chrome rendering. Link transitions are managed through CSS, maintaining readability during state changes. Publication dates derive from Git commit timestamps and front matter, formatted in RFC 3339.
The build pipeline employs Dart Sass for preprocessing, with deployment managed through GitHub Actions, hosting on Namecheap. Source maintained in the gold branch with recursive submodule handling, the build process employs garbage collection and minification.
Deployment runs on Hugo’s extended version, with new deployments queuing behind in-progress builds, ensuring atomic updates. Posts carry full metadata and tags, while standalone pages use hideMeta parameter to suppress date and author information.
Responsive breakpoints at 1200px (container margins), 840px (full-width content), and 600px (mobile optimization). DNS managed via CNAME record to https://iaconelli.org. SSL termination handled by IBM NS1.
Full content RSS feeds generated for main content and all taxonomies. HTML is semantic, headers minimal, caching implemented through GitHub Pages’ default configuration.
