I am working on a small project that uses Tailwind CSS. Normally, I always start programming UI things in HTML and then wonder why it's not as clear and clean as I imagined. Most of my work actually always takes place in the backend. In order to proceed with this project in a more structured way, I wanted to create a few user interface layouts before I start programming.
I think the tool of choice for professionals is Figma. However, I thought to myself, with Inkscape I can certainly implement this for my purposes. When I wanted to assign a color to the first elements, I found it very complicated to take the Hex triplet from Customizing Colors and assign them again each time. I would like to show you how to do this more easily.
Planning my home climbing wall reset with Inkscape
My adjustable home climbing wall is now three and a half years old. I made once a smaller and once a bigger upgrade. And next year I would like to do a reset. The main reason for the reset is my need for LED support when memorizing routes. I would like to show how I will plan the reset with the help of Inkscape.
Design a Heroicons like SVG icon with Inkscape
Since a few month I try to refactor a few of my web projects. Part of this also involves changes to the design. A topic that I actually like, but have to admit to myself that I'm not good at it. That's why I was very happy about the emergence of Bootstrap and Font Awesome back then. Libraries that you simply use and that's it. For the new design revision, however, I would like to build on Tailwind CSS and Heroicons. But for one of my projects I need a customized icon. I would like to show you how I do it.
Creating a handwritten TrueType font in Linux

Inkscape - Change the color of markers
Markers of a stroke have one problem in Inkscape,
they are always black. Here a small example of a unfilled shape with red Stroke paint, a DotL as
Start Markers and a Arrow2Lend as End Markers.
I would like to show three ways to turn the markers red.
Inkscape - Cut an object in half
I guess some will smile about this post. But for me it wasn't that trivial to cut an object exactly in half with Inkscape. Maybe there are better ways to do that, but here is my simple one.
