Welcome!

Hey, I am John Franke, a programmer and musician living in Nashville Tennessee. I made this site to post tutorials, articles, and some music.

Thanks for reading,


Feeling generous?

Here are a few of my favorite charities.

Donate to Catalyst Sports 2024

Donate to Paradox Sports 2023

Every February, I climb for charity at Climb Nashville. Paradox Sports and Catalyst Sports both offer accessible climbing opportunities for people with differing abilities, defying the perception that people with a β€˜disability’ cannot lead a life of adventure. We hit the goal in 2022 and 2023. Let's do it again in 2024! Progress πŸ“ˆ

Nashville Community Fridge is a free fridge in Nashville that provides healthy fresh food for nearby residents.

Donate to Project Healthy Children

Donate to Palestine Children's Relief Fund πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Έ

This blog was generated via agave, a static site generator I wrote with ReasonML that turns markdown files (.md) into custom styled html and css.

npm i -g agave-generator
# for theming your own site
mkdir markdown
cd markdown
echo '<html><body><!-- MARKDOWN --></body></html>' >> base.html
touch index.md && touch styles.css
cd ..
agave -p docs

And push to your GitHub io page, or upload to any other static site hosting service.

For code syntax highlighting, I am using highlight.js in my base.html file.
