This is the result of many, many hours sat at my keyboard trying
different things, most of which failing.
Figuring out how to install Tailwind in this setup was a real adventure
with all of the resources online pulling me in two different ways.
Documentation is hard.
I definitely do prefer having the codebase use the tools available more,
instead of the old simple web dev stuff I'm used to. We're using what's
available through Svelte a lot more now.
I think that these changes will make the codebase easier to work in,
with the architecture being more familiar to regular web developers, and
these changes should also reduce friction when adding new content, which
is the main goal.
I'll never get this time back though, and I'm still slightly
contemplating whether it was really worth it.
Despite the simplicity of the commit title, this was a pretty big
change. The styling used to just go off of the system's color scheme,
but that can't be overridden. Instead, I have made a variable that
determines whether dark theme is active and made a small panel with some
buttons to change the theme. I had to change a lot of code to achieve
this and lost a lot of hair (I metaphorically pulled it out) from
writing this code.
I also changed things from legacy mode to rune mode (Svelte 4 to 5)
while I was at it, that wasn't too big.
