Simply Cyan is a public theme adaptation of a theme I made for a creative writing website, Internet Exploreur.
The site is no longer active but an archive can be found here. A big thank you to Candice Labrousse, Quentin Leclerc et Robinson Lacotte, who contributed to its design and had lots of useful advices in order to make it beautiful, accessible and enjoyable by the most people possible.
