vdvestelle.com is the personal website of Estelle Van de Velde. A sort of sandbox, if you'd like. It has been designed and developed by Estelle Van de Velde.

Tools and assets

Full custom, using SCSS.
Versioned on Codeberg, hosted on Combell.

Accessibility

Here's the WAVE report for the website.

Sustainability

Only 0.02g of CO2 is produced every time someone visits the homepage. It's cleaner than 98% of the web pages tested globally.

Performance

Pagespeed Benchmark score: 66 on mobile, 95 on desktop. Yep, I can still work on the mobile version, haha.
And here is the score on the W3C validator tool.

Your personal data

I'm very happy to state that this website does not collect any personal data about visitors. I've worked in marketing for many years and I'm a bit shocked on how companies collect and use data for their personal gain. I won't do that on my website, so I don't use analytics. You can check on the code if you don't believe me ;)

My newsletter... well, if you decide to subscribe to it, this is only to share my author news. I will only send you an email if I have something to share about my writing or my upcoming books. I will solely collect your email address for that purpose, and I use MailerLite. I do not share your email address with third parties. You can always unsubscribe via the link in my newsletters, or you can write to me.

Contact information

You can get in touch by sending me an email or reaching out to me on Mastodon.
