Independent, simple, informative
Until now, we have shared our stories and images on
Social
Media or in the
Blog.
But one day, after a small yet highly enlightening discussion
with a digital assistant about the ever-present trend of gigantic hero images,
we thought: “Wait a second! We need our own site.
One that informs, tells stories in a picture-book-like way, and neither screams
nor sets the server on fire.”
And so we began to sit down in front of our monitor –
the screen showing nothing but raw, honest lines of code. Only HTML.
<navigation> here, <article> there, a tiny bit of CSS,
a touch of ECMAScript, carefully applied PHP. No WordPress armies,
no Laravel shields, no Symfony armors, no React catapults,
Angular aircraft, Vue magic potions, jQuery sirens, CakePHP kitchen gadgets,
CodeIgniter rockets, Backbone boomerangs, Ember fireballs, or Svelte dance boards –
all those resounding names that would normally sound like an orchestra of
37 drums and 12 trombones drowning out our keyboard.
Instead, there is calm here. Linear, clear, charming:
one text block, one image block, an <article> like a small island
of clarity. Errors are allowed, imperfection is welcome –
like a small brushstroke in a large painting.
In the photo you can see Gregor sitting in front of the monitor,
hands lightly above the keyboard, face relaxed, gaze focused.
No hero in a digital war, no knight wielding a sword of Framework magic.
Just a human being consciously deciding: We trust our <navigation>
and our <article> more than all the database monsters in the world.
And so, since 12.02.26, our site has come into being: a small, secret space on the web,
where images and information come together in a friendly way. Entirely without an OOP orc,
without Autoloader wizardry, without Docker dragons – just with a wink,
a touch of technical magic, and enough humor to make the great Framework armies
a little jealous.
