@tiefling@bardicperspiration.club @Overgoddess@bardicperspiration.club lol, that’s okay! If you’re comfortable poking around the code, check out their Starter Kit. It’s a great resource and doesn’t cost anything but your time to play with. If you don’t mind sharing, what’s the project? https://getkirby.com/try

@Overgoddess@bardicperspiration.club @tiefling@bardicperspiration.club @getkirby@mastodon.social Tough call; you’d need to be able to write PHP, but the Kirby docs and community are best in class IMO. A number of years ago I needed to choose a new CMS, and I spent a lot of time kicking tires and testing, including Grav. It’s been a while, though, and Grav now looks like a totally different product that guzzled the AI-koolaid. I’d choose Kirby for the people behind it and their ethics as much as anything!

It almost feels wrong to buy @getkirby@mastodon.social licenses at a discount—but if you’re so inclined (I grabbed 5 😬), there’s a 20% sale running until the 6th. These folks are fantastic, and Kirby as a CMS is so flexible but still intuitive for my clients (and myself building sites). In a time where it’s easy to not care, this is software built by people with values that’re worth getting behind. https://getkirby.com #webdev #indiedev

@nathansnelgrove@mastodon.social Hey, thanks for the update! I did read out the post you recommended and would love to see/read more. Really like how you give each concept a unique name so you can easily talk about it. It’s those details that can make such a difference with clients, hey? And the site for Bruce Mayhew is fantastic! Totally nailed the typography, and I _love_ that big chunky footer. 👍

@nathansnelgrove Subscribed! FWIW I’d love to see the stylescapes you mention in the previous newsletter. Sounds like a great approach.

@elfkin@woof.group Thanks, I appreciate this a lot. It can be easy for me to overthink things and this strikes me as sound advice. Btw I enjoyed your “Once More, With Feeling” post. The high class problem idea, lol — I build websites but can relate! All the best with your craft.

@elfkin@woof.group But even this implies the idea of including photos of people who “look” non binary. How do you address that visually? Perhaps through a *lack* of “obvious” male/female models? How do you quantify that spectrum? I don’t know what I don’t know. But I know that I don’t want people to feel left out if they visit a website I directed or built.

@elfkin@woof.group Good questions. It’s a service biz in the healthcare sector, so think physio, RMT, chiro, naturopath. The criticism as I understand came from a constructive place. As in, someone booked, but also discussed with the practitioner/owner about their doubts based on the website. I guess it might be that I need to explore an education for myself as much as finding a solution for this specific client. As a cis white dude my own bias for photo selection might be the issue, you know?

Hello mastodon! Does anyone have feedback or resources to suggest on how a local business website could be more inclusive to non-binary folks?

I’m working with a client who has been questioned if they *are* truly a welcoming/safe space due to lack of images on the site that represent NB people. Fair enough!

I’ve known this client for decades and can vouch for their character. Can we make this clear without seeming reductive or pandering?
