Nice site/typography!

The bold and italics look like they’re being applied in browser though, rather than specific faces.

And it’s calling out for some small caps for acronyms like ‘HTML’.

Nice to see sites with this style, it’s very rare nowadays!

Thanks! I agree re the style -- I've attempted to make a 'spirit of the old web' (no Javascript, no tracking cookies, etc) and text-based, CSS-based site. Essentially: communicate what I want to, without the overhead that's normal in many sites today.

Yes, both bold and italic are being applied by the browser, and I do need to fix that. Italic is a temporary choice because I don't like the look of EB Garamond (the current text font) in its italic face, and need to find an alternative. Bold, though, is not intentional. I've noticed the macOS and iOS stacks mimic bold differently, which is an interesting thing to have found.

Excellent point re allcaps for acronyms. Should be pretty easy to add to the site generator. Thanks for the suggestion :)
