Aamir's Notes

I’ve been working on multiple different pages on the site. Firstly, I renamed the site to notes.aamirazad.com to be a bit more broad. This allowed me to add the laptop recommendations page which I will be sending to many people who ask what to buy for college. It will go in depth about pretty much every laptop out there and who should buy which. Also, I’ve been slowly chugging away with writing physics equations. This Unit 5 one is a doozy, a lot of math and diagrams.

While all the other dev logs tracked the time I coded stuff, I am also tracking the time it takes me to write the content for the site. I am doing this on obsidian. That way I can use many of obsidian’s useful features when writing Markdown. Also, I heavily use obsidian-excalidraw to create the diagrams found on the site. Additionally, I use obsidian-latex-suite to write the equations found on the site faster than traditional latex. For example this page has a lot of these diagrams and equations. Attached is a timelapse of me writing some of the content for Unit 5.

I put a lot of time into my English notes. When I read books for English class, I always take very good annotations such that I can look back at my annotations and get a good idea of everything there is to know about the book. It is for that reason that I did not want to publish my English notes on the site for the public like I do for the other courses. But I wanted to show that I have them so that if students wanted, they could reach out, and I would send it to them. So I scrambled the text and then published them with a blur to show how much text there is, while preventing them from reading it.

Changelog

• feat: finish removing old quartz stuff
• feat: improvements to protected files
• fix: remove quartz discord link
• feat: hidden text is inert

I removed the graph moving the table of contents to the top. Also, I made it so when you click on the images they expand to take much much more of the screen. The user can then close it by clicking escape, outside the image, or the x button. It also looks good on mobile. I’m currently working on protecting my english notes though blurring before publishing.

Changelog

• feat: remove graph
• fix: landing page title
• feat: website style and physics 1-4

This is my personal tutoring site. I write a lot of notes, and I put a lot of time into making my notes easy to understand and read. But usually only I have access to these notes. So with this website, I will be able to easily publish my obsidian notes with excalidraw diagrams and latex math equations to an easily accessible website for other’s to reference. I started by adjusting quartz’s default theme to something that is a bit more unique, as seen in the screenshots below.
