Close to the Machine

Jerry Kurlandski

Urubu

In these pages I describe what I have been learning as I migrate my website from straight HTML and CSS to Urubu.

One way to interpret this section of Close to the Machine is as a complement to the Urubu Quickstart Guide. There is a logical order to some of the pages, so the best way to read them is consecutively. But reading them individually—according to your particular interests and needs—wouldn't be such a bad thing, either.

These notes are based on Urubu version 1.3.0.
