About

Welcome to My Little Corner of the Web 🌍

Hey there πŸ‘‹

Welcome to my personal reference hub! Here, I store all sorts of things I find useful:

  • Code Snippets πŸ’»: Handy bits of code I’ve written or discovered.
  • Tutorials πŸ“š: Guides that have helped me, or ones I’ve created to clarify concepts.
  • Personal Thoughts πŸ’­: Musings, ideas, and anything else that comes to mind.

This is my first time building a static Markdown site, so bear with me as I continue learning the ropes with Jekyll. Things might break now and then, but I appreciate your patience! πŸ™

Why I Prefer Simplicity

I used to work with WordPress β€” amazing software, no doubt β€” but I always felt it was a bit bloated with plugins. The learning curve got steep, and I often found myself managing plugins more than creating content. πŸ€” That’s when I realized I prefer simple, lightweight solutions. With this static site, there’s no database to worry about β€” it’s fast, efficient, and streamlined, which suits me perfectly. πŸš€

Behind the Site

This site is powered by Jekyll, a static site generator that works wonderfully with Liquid templating. It allows me to dynamically generate content and customize the layout without the overhead of traditional CMS platforms. Plus, everything on this site is written in Markdown, making it super easy to manage and update.

Fun fact: the people behind my home automation software, Home Assistant also use Jekyll for their site! 🌟

This space doesn’t have much structure β€” think of it as a digital notebook rather than a polished blog. ✍️

Feel free to explore, and I hope you find something useful or interesting along the way! 🌟
