Welcome to my new blog!
For a long time, my portfolio was just a single, hand-crafted HTML file. It was fast, simple, and required zero build steps. But as I wanted to start writing more about my experiences scaling decentralized networks, self-hosting hardware, and dealing with massive community support challenges, I realized writing blog posts in raw HTML tags was going to be a nightmare.
Enter Astro.
Why Astro?
Astro allows me to keep the exact same minimal, zero-JavaScript (mostly) aesthetic, but lets me write my thoughts in pure Markdown. It compiles everything down to static HTML, meaning the site stays lightning fast, but my developer experience is 10x better.
Over the coming weeks, I plan to write about:
- How empathy and community building are essential for technical success
Thanks for reading. More to come!
