+title: About this website
+author: patrick
+layout: page
+---
+
+This website has been around in one form or another since June 26th, 2013.
+
+The website is hosted on [DigitalOcean] and is served statically by [NGINX].
+[Cloudflare] is sitting between my DigitalOcean droplet and you.
+Your HTTPS connection is secure to Cloudflare, and secure from Cloudflare to the droplet.
+
+The rendering engines are [Hugo] for the site, [pdftex] for PDFs, and [ImageMagick] to create image thumbnails.
+The Hugo theme is [Anatole] with a variety of modifications, most notably to remove most uses of JavaScript and to incorporate [Danila Fedore's sidenotes](https://danilafe.com/blog/sidenotes/) ([archive](https://web.archive.org/web/20210116232126/https://danilafe.com/blog/sidenotes/)).
+Mathematical notation in HTML is rendered by [KaTeX].
+
+You can access the TeX source of any PDFs I authored in TeX, by replacing the ".pdf" extension with ".tex".
+
+The infrastructure for this website is defined and managed by [Pulumi]; you can see it [on GitHub](https://github.com/Smaug123/PulumiConfig/).
+That repository also specifies the [Nix] configuration for the server.
