About this website

At The Think Pool, we strongly believe that a website is the product of the collective contributions from various open-source projects and creators. This page is dedicated to recognizing and expressing gratitude to the talented creatives and exceptional projects that have played a vital role in bringing this website to life.

The Think Pool built this website with the Hugo framework and the Congo theme. Hugo framework is renowned for generating lightweight and static websites, which translates to faster load times and eliminates the need for database queries. In other words, it enhances usability and improves search engine rankings.

Both Hugo and Congo are brilliant open-source projects that also contribute to reducing carbon footprint. The homepage of this website, for instance, produces only around 0.04g of CO2 per page view, which is not only beneficial for our planet but also surpasses 96% of the pages tested on the Website Carbon Calculator. Additionally, we utilize a green hosting provider to further minimize our CO2 emissions.

The website employs the Lato font, created by Łukasz Dziedz­ic and Adam Twar­doch, and released under the SIL Open Font License. The social network icons used are from the Font Awesome open-source project. The cookie consent module was created by Orest Bida and contributors, and was released under the MIT License. We employ the Cusdis comment system in the Blog section, opting for its lightweight nature, open-source architecture, and privacy-focused design.
