I’ve done a lot of work to this site since my last post. First and foremost, I got Webmentions setup 🎉🎊🕺. I’ve documented the step-by-step setup in the repo already, so I won’t repeat it here but I thought it would be fun to record who helped me out (and send them webmentions 😜).
I really like the idea of Webmentions and the opportunity they present to live a less siloed life on the web.
Hopefully I can add Webmentions to this site without too much trouble, is a list1 of my design goals:
After my last post I tried to reincept this site using Hexo rather than Hugo.
But 2022 turned out to be a pretty busy year 😅
Despite the enthusiasm of my previous post I havn’t posted in a while.
Initially this was due to laziness, but for at least the last few months this has been due to a technical issue – I can’t build the site to publish new content.
Some folks asked me why I decided to use a static site generator (Hugo) even though I make software (including websites) professionally.
At first pass it might seem like a good idea – why not take this opportunity to show off my web dev skillz.
