I decided that it was about time to make my site more professional and actually tell some about me.
For this project I wanted to select a stack that would be quick to pickup and address my need efficiently - Astro was a no brainer
- It has exactly as much SSR as I need
- I can keep my blog (and really the rest of my site) as static as possible
- Efficient resource management (ship-size)
- Easy to learn
- Can add and remove libraries as needed
This was my first time using tailwind - even if it doesn't look the best, the animations and styling was at least fun and intuitive to learn.
Astro.js
React.js
Tailwindcss
Deployed with Netlify
While this site was fully coded and stylesd by me, the design was very much drawn from
Sean Haplins March 2023 design https://www.seanhalpin.xyz
and I followed devaslife to setup this project, so a lot of the config is pulled from Takuya Matsuyama's website
