tech stuff

so how'd you build such a cool site?

Glad you asked. Here's the tech behind it.

---

• Jekyll -- A clean and lightweight content management system. It's database-free, generating static pages using HTML and fairly simple markdown.
• GitHub Pages -- Instead of paying for web hosting services, I use their public repository to store and serve my Jekyll-generated pages.
• Bootstrap -- I'm using this for the layout and web framework for the site. An impressive set of tools for configuring HTML, CSS (using SASS), and implementing JavaScript libraries.
• FontAwesome -- A great icon library. And it's free.
• iwantmyname -- Where I register all my domains. It's a great service, free of the crap and upselling you get from other domain registrars.
• Visual Studio Code -- Currently my most favorite text editor.
