There are lots of static page generators, I personally used Hugo and there like 100 others. But I had a project where I wanted something even simpler, and had a few requirements. I wanted to Write raw HTML/CSS Update things in one place only (e.g. don’t copy paste the menu to each html file). For 1, you don’t need anything other than an editor. 2 is where you need something more than HTML.
Domains and owning your content This page is currently hosted on micro.blog under a custom domain. Hosting things on your own domain is the absolutely most important part of owning and controlling your content and web presence. If you have one thing you take away from this post, that is it.

I am a long time twitter user, but things have changed a lot on twitter since I joined in 2009. For a long time, I didn’t notice much of the changes, mainly because I’ve been using 3rd party clients since the start, and life in them has not changed much in the 11 years since I got on. But after various levels of activity on twitter, I recently tried posting more actively, and writing more thought out tweets than where I will have lunch.
