About the website
I maitain this site for a few reasons. In no particular order:
- I want to improve my writing skills and I enjoy having a space that “pressures” me to write.
- It’s a way for me to tinker with technology.
- This website is built with hugo (using the hugo bear blog theme) and served via sourcehut pages.
- I quite enjoy reading about other people’s experiences, challenges, perspectives, interests, goals, adventures etc, on the internet. I figure I should play my part in keeping the personal blog / website alive on the WWW.
- I also want to contribute to the small web.
