• This shrinks the footer height, and places it back at the bottom of the screen instead of floating half-way up the page when little content exists (source 1, source 2)
• Also replaces ThemeMagic for Brand Primary Color, Footer Background, and Footer Text Color

Welcome! Realm of Espionage is a personal project composed of various services. All services on RoE are free and open-source, self-hosted, and configured with strict security in-mind. My most prominent project currently is RoE | Wiki, a DokuWiki instance that holds my notes on all sorts of operating system, client, and server deployments, free for anyone to view and redistribute under the CC BY-SA 4.0 license.

 

This domain serves as a landing page and provides links to my most-used profiles and projects. To view them, use the navigation bar (desktop) or the ≡ hamburger icon (mobile) at the top of the screen.

 

• Main menu headers are: System Links → URL → # to allow tapping as-expected on mobile
• Icon sizes are 24×24
• Menu entries should be named normally before saving for a proper alias, and then add a space on the title afterwards to make it look better with the icon
