Colophon

A note on how this reference is made.

This is a long-form reference for the ideas behind computer science — algorithms today, deep learning in progress, written and illustrated by Amittai Siavava. It is a static site: every page is rendered ahead of time and served as plain HTML.

The figures are not screenshots. Each one is a TikZ drawing rendered to SVG when the site is built, so it stays sharp at any size and recolors itself for light and dark themes; every equation is set with KaTeX.
