Hey, that’s right here!

I’ve been a long-time tinkerer with the web. All the way back in middle school, I was editing HTML on my little chromebook. At some point, I added Sass to make styling a little easier, but it was still a lot of manual work.

I eventually picked up Next.js for its ability to do anything you were able to coerce React and Webpack into doing. While it was powerful, it never felt nice to use. Cue me switching between half a dozen frameworks in the span of a couple years. I landed on Solid Start for a good while because it felt like Next but a little cleaner and more streamlined. But this website is still first a foremost a static blog, which is why Astro is so appealing. I still get my nice styling -now with UnoCSS- and composability with solid.js, but only when I need it.

All the posts you see here are generated from plain markdown with minimal work. I’m hoping to add some more interesting stuff later, but for now Astro provides a very nice starting point.
