My brand new website. Complete with a blog, a proper design, and (bloody finally) some sense of direction.

Once you have cloned the repo locally and ran npm i (or npm install if you love tradition), the following commands become available:

# starts the dev server at http://localhost:4321
npm start

# does the same as npm start, but also runs TS type-checking at the same time
npm run dev

# builds the website in production mode
npm run build

# starts the production site at http://localhost:4321, after running the above build command
npm run preview

• Astro
• Modern CSS
• Bootstrap Icons

• It builds to static files by default, eliminating as much JavaScript as possible.
• It lets me use other JS frameworks/libraries like Svelte and React when I feel like it, rather than locking me in to one or the other.
• There are nice DX features, like import aliases, file-system routing and Markdown support.
• It is being actively developed into a framework that stands with the giants.
