About this website.

This website is built with Middleman and TailwindCSS. There is a tiny amount of JavaScript to power some image loading because I wanted to learn some more TypeScript and needed a small task to tinker on.

There are no analytics or third-party tracking scripts. I have downloaded some Google Fonts and host them along with the website files.

The website is currently hosted on Cloudflare pages, however it will move back to my own VM at Digital Ocean. I use Gitea to manage my git repositories.

Okay but why though?

Why do anything? Because it's there. And it is fun. And because the Internet can be a source of good. It is more than the corporate web. You can build your own website and own your own data. It is ugly and messy and I am proud of it regardless.

It is also a place to play and tinker. I have built and rebuilt this website countless times because it is fun. It is also educational. I have learned deeply about various content management systems, web development frameworks, building, testing, deploying, and serving websites. At the end of the day, the best version of any of that is the one that resonates and helps you move forward.

Finally, it's just my home on the web, a tiny slice and view of what is going on in my world, for those that are interested.
