This Website

The Inspiration
I've wanted a personal website for a while, and now that I have some extra time on my hands,
I finally pulled the trigger.
This is an experimental project for me: I get to try out various technologies I've read about
but never got a chance to work with. The site is primarily a way for me to visually see my own
projects, and secondarily something "tangible" to share with others. Pages will get re-designed,
components will move around, things might break...just a heads up.
I'm also feeling nostalgic for the websites from the late 90s, back when people made sites to
share something with the world, and before websites became ad-laden minefields stuffed with
cookies. (This site does use Google Analytics.)
Tech Specs (so far)
- AWS S3 & CloudFront for hosting
- Astro web framework
- HTML/CSS/JS for that old-fashioned hand-coded development
