Whelp, it had to be done. New blog post, new site. You get tired of using a standard WordPress installation and theme after a while. It feels pretty lame for a developer to cheap out and not actually do any coding on their own website! Since I have very recently been picking up rails it seemed like a good time to finally do it right.
They’re all static pages that are generated using nanoc:
Which is pretty rad. It’s pretty barebones in that it really depends on the developer to make the site (as opposed to WordPress which hands you a working installation) but it really gives you a lot of power in how your site is generated. Thankfully I still have various other things that can allow me to do dynamic things when the site is hit!
Regardless I’m pretty happy at the moment with my short progress over a handful of hours. I’ll hopefully build this out farther as time goes on. At the very least I now have an outlet for my thoughts that I can push to via git. That has to mean something, right?
