I've wanted to try Tufte CSS (Github) with Write.as for a while. Had a play today. Do you see?

Notes:

i. I binned the tufte.css hr styling as, as is, it breaks the hr Write.as uses in its standard footer. I don't see a reason not to keep the Write.as default.

ii. You need to define p.description.p-note, which Write.as uses for its blog straplines. I duplicated tufte.css' p.subtitle class, so essentially you're just adding this:

p.description.p-note {
     font-style: italic;
    margin-top: 1rem;
    margin-bottom: 1rem;
    font-size: 1.8rem;
    display: block;
    line-height: 1;
}

iii. That leaves much of Tufte CSS untested (including sidenotes, arguably its main reason to exist.) So I might be running a semi-broken blog unawares here. Let's see.

iv. Procrastinating much?

v. On publishing, I need to do something about post dates. Not now, though.

Update: Fun as that was, reverting for the same reasons I did before. Font size and body width faff, and the fact that default styling looks better anyway. Let's just set links to underline and not pretend CSS is something I should put time into.
