About the project

Quaerere Veritatem is born from the conviction that truth is fragmentary, multidimensional, and never fully attainable. This space does not pretend to be an encyclopedia or a blog: it is a digital garden, a terrain where ideas are sown, grow, and intertwine without obeying an imposed disciplinary structure.

Editorial Philosophy

Disciplines as connections, not boxes

The traditional classification of knowledge —physics, history, aesthetics, epistemology— has institutional utility, but also distorts. In the practice of thought, concepts migrate between territories. A physics problem may illuminate an ethical question; an artistic intuition may reconfigure a scientific argument.

That is why this project rejects hierarchical structure and bets on tags as the only taxonomy.

Immutable identity

Each article is identified by a folder with format YYYY-MM-DD-NN. This identifier never changes. Titles, descriptions, and bodies may be edited, but the identity remains.

The garden is not organized: it is traversed.

Technology

The project uses modern web technologies to offer a clean reading experience focused on content:

• Astro for pure static generation (SSG)
• Tailwind CSS v4 for styles with design tokens
• MiniSearch for client-side search with static indices
• Markdown as the only editable content format
• Zod for schema and frontmatter validation

The source code is publicly available.

About the design

The visual identity seeks to evoke traditional academic publishing without falling into gratuitous nostalgia. The chromatic palette —paper, ink, library green— accompanies three differentiated typeface families: Literata for thought, Inter for interface, and Libre Baskerville for quoted voice.
