Keepsake
Keepsake — Your Keepsake Page, your way
Two days after its launch, the Keepsake Page — the public space where you publish your notes at keepsake.place/@your-handle — gains five appearance settings, and rebuilds its rendering around an editorial typography. Every writer can now choose how their page looks.
Three themes
From Settings, a new Appearance section offers three themes for your public page:
- Ivory (default) — a warm, light background with a brown ink. The softest theme, made for reading long-form text.
- Paper — a cool neutral with a near-black ink. More classical, magazine-like.
- Night — a warm dark background, not a pure inversion. Designed to stay legible and calm for evening reading.
Each theme is a complete system, not just a two-color swap: primary and secondary background, three shades of ink, hairlines. One click, everything shifts.
Four accents
An accent colors the opening quote mark of blockquotes, hover states on links, the heart in the footer, and text selection. Four choices, independent from the theme:
- Terre de Sienne (default) — a muted red-brown.
- Prussian Blue — a deep blue.
- Sage Green — a soft green.
- Ink — a very quiet accent, close to black ink.
On the Night theme, Sage Green lightens automatically so it stays readable on the dark background.
Editorial typography
The public rendering has been rebuilt around an editorial typography that reads like a book.
A few details that make the page enjoyable to read:
- An optional drop cap at the start of written notes.
- Relative timestamps (“3 hours ago”) for recent notes, and the absolute date beyond 24 hours.
- Monthly dividers in Roman numerals (“04 — MMXXVI”) between notes from different months.
A Contact button and page language
Two last settings in Appearance:
- Contact email — an optional field. If filled, a Contact button appears in your page header. Leave it empty to hide it — nothing is exposed by default.
- Page language — French or English, independent from your app language. Labels (dates, note kinds, footer) localize to your choice.
New interactions
Beyond appearance, navigation has evolved:
- Click anywhere on a note to open it. Internal markdown links within a note remain clickable normally.
- The date is a permalink to the individual note, following the convention of social media.
- Tags, mentions, and references (
#tag#,[[page]],@mention@) render as plain text on the public page.
