ope.

Alright. So the last time, this didn't work. Here we are again -- nearly the same day (in the year) too.

Anyway yeah. A bunch of things have been asking for a site but mine wasn't the best look. I still liked the old theme but there wasn't really any content.

So I decided to make a site that is at least slightly useful.

A big change is I'm no longer using Hugo. I liked Hugo a bunch, but every time I would come back to it - with how infrequently I blog - I needed to re-learn how everything worked. So now the site is using Nuxt/Vue.

There are still a bunch of things that need to be worked out, pardon my dust and all that but I'm still keeping the things I liked the most.

  • The site is still hosted via github/github pages - with all the source available.1
  • The posting format is still basically the same as Hugo
  • The Now page is still there
  • Depending on how NuxtContent works I may still try and adapt hugo (or something like it for building content)2

New Stuff

So we've got a few new sections - exciting. exciting.

  • I'm trying to make good on my statement about including book reports on the books I read. The reports are still in progress but you'll be able to find all of that over on bookshelf
  • There are a few little chaotic touches to the site, I'm trying to add more as I think of them.3
  • There is a page that chronicles my work / projects - mostly so that I can keep track of what I do / have done

Footnotes

  1. In part because I'm cheap, but also because as a person who learned web development via "view source" years ago having the source available for people who may want to learn from me feels cool. ↩
  2. I'm not really enamored with using a web panel to make content for a static site, even if it's using git as a backend. Terminal feels much more natural for how I use computers ↩
  3. Mostly these happen when I don't want to decide on something. The most visible one is probably very obvious if you've ever come back to the site. ↩
