Building OneFlow: Crafting an Effortless Jekyll Theme for One-Pager Websites
My starting point was the Minimal Mistakes theme. From there, I copied the theme repository and meticulously removed everything I didn't need. This left me with the bare essentials, allowing me to build OneFlow from the ground up, but with some basic styling and features already at hand, which Michael Rose (the creator of Minimal Mistakes) has masterfully created.

Ask HN: Share Your Personal Site
https://www.vladsiv.com/
Recently started a personal blog. The plan is to blog about Data Science/Engineering and implementation of modern data solutions in scientific research.
The blog is hosted on GitHub pages using minimal mistakes theme [0] (which I had to customize a lot to suit my needs [1]).

Blog: Safe and easy AWS with 2FA and scripted login
Thank you! As for the fonts: I user Jekyll and minimal mistakes for this site, and I just looked it up to verify: By default the theme uses system fonts for all of the font stacks (serif, sans-serif, and monospace). This is done in part to provide a clean base for you to build off of and to improve performance since we aren’t loading any custom webfonts by default. See: here. So it might have to do with the system fonts that you currently have set.

who is self-hosting a static website and what are you using to build it?
I use Metalsmith. Been happy with it. I build my site into a self-contained nginx docker image.

I also started to move to hugo, but they didn't merge the pr [2] which would have helped in the transition. :(
The look is still similar to what it was in the beginning, in terms of colors at least.

Why I built my own static site generator
A static site generator I've been enjoying lately (and using for my blog) is Metalsmith: https://metalsmith.io/
It feel like it's the best of both worlds, because it's simple to learn and customize, but there are plugins for the things you don't want to spend time writing yourself.
For example, I'm using plugins to: check for broken links, generate an RSS feed, and run a test server with automatic reloading.
But then I was able to easily add in my own code to handle relative links, generate Graphviz diagrams, and format dates.
One other recommendation: I hated almost every template language I ran across (Hugo's, Liquid, Nunjucks, EJS), but I'm thrilled with the simplicity of Handlebars (https://handlebarsjs.com/), although it is a bit limiting and the "block helper with parameters" syntax is strange (perhaps an indicator that I'm trying to do too much in the templating language!).
