The goal of these webpages is to minimize the number of layers between plain text representations that are useful for an author, and html representations that are useful for a reader. The pages are built from markdown files using pandoc. The generic build command is:
pandoc --template=hh-template.html -o ($page).html ($page).md
where hh-template.html is a stripped down version of default.html5.
For the publications page, I add --citeproc to convert from
a bib file. I use the stylesheet from Simple.css. The markdown files can be
downloaded by typing the corresponding name in the searchbar, e.g. https://www.princeton.edu/~hhalvors/about.md.
February 2024: This will be the last update I do on the Princeton server. The University doesn’t provide any support to faculty who want to have creative input into their own webpages, and they make it exceedingly difficult to sync local files to their servers.
