If you don't have an idea on what a digital garden is you should totally read about it. This website exists as an outlet for me to express myself in whatever medium I choose without restrictions. It is a space for me to connect and meet new people, to learn, build, grow, document my learnings and manage my knowledge better.

I've made it a clean space—minimal, easy to navigate, simple and personal, allowing the website to grow with me. What do I mean by this? Each time you come back here, something must have changed. From the ever evolving essays and notes to the designs and pages, and that is the beauty of it all. Change is constant, even in Lily's garden. I employ you to come back whenever you can to find and notice the changes no matter how small.

"A digital garden is an online space at the intersection of a notebook and a blog, where digital gardeners share their interests, knowledge and personalities." — Maggie Appleton

Having a website means having full ownership of all your content. You're in total control of what happens to your content, you make the rules, you live by those rules and you can choose to break them at any time. That is the same for me. I am able to create more content than I consume passively. I create content that stands the test of time. Evergreen content, because I keep tending to them from time to time. It allows me to customize as much as possible and own my data instead of feeding it to big corporations that sell it. No pressure to create or perform, no ads constantly in my face. I am able to make meaningful contributions and engage freely without restrictions.

While there are many tools I could use to bring this to life, I chose to create something for myself, one that I can customize to my preference, one that I can design and update as time goes on.

The values my website brings :-

• Creativity
• Unwalled gardens
• Minimal tracking: because I'd like to know when new internet surfers reach my little corner and where they come from.
