About the site

I remember using the omnipresent wordpress, blogpost and other CMS a decade ago, and hosting it on crappy hosting services with buggy implementations.
Fast forward to 2020, the necessaity of a personal portfolio webpage inspired me to try something different. The result of which is an attempt to design and make this portfolio & blogging page.
Searching around made me read about Static Web Pages and how it was taking over the domain of blogging, and basically sites with static content, by storm.
Consequently, after due deligence, I have gone on to use the fabuolous Hugo Static site generator(SSG) and hosted it quite effortlessly on Github Pages. (You may do it on any VPS)
Hugo uses Markdown as a writing language, which is better suited for static information & blogging sites, than HTML, which is a publishing language.
You may check the speed at which pages load on this website. That ones entirely coz of the SSG!
Hugo has a certain learning curve, but when done properly, is quite satisfying.
Big shout out to the hugo-coder theme that i have used for this site.
