Hello, world! Welcome to my online notepad đź“ť
Thank you for stopping by! I created this blog for a few reasons—but it mostly exists to help me, by:
- Creating a spot to store information I might find useful later—and if some of it is occasionally useful to others, that's a bonus.
- Helping to make a regular habit out of writing—which comes with benefits all of its own.
I've been active in the software business for over a decade, in several roles, but mostly software engineering. However, I have a deep love and interest in everything that goes into the production of software (which is a lot more than just a bunch of coding). The content you find here will generally reflect this.
Tell me about the blog itself
The blog itself is created using some software called Publii. This may seem like an unusual choice for someone like me, who has been particularly active in the WordPress space, however:
- Sometimes, you need to get out of your bubble and experience other tools.
- So far as I know, Publii is currently a pretty unique proposition: it's an SSG delivered as a desktop app. The concept definitely isn't new, but I also don't think there are many other actively supported apps out there right now that work this way ... and, well, it's fun to experiment.
