About This Site

My corner of the internet since 2018, rebuilt many times.

This site is where I experiment, learn, and document things. It was first created in 2008 on WordPress with shared hosting and has been rebuilt several times with different tech stacks. The current version uses Next.js with local markdown files for content. No CMS, no external dependencies for publishing.

React framework with App Router, SSG, and server components
