My new site

June 16, 2025

Welcome to my new site, this is my first post that I am making while I create this space. I have just figured out basic functionality for blog posts and photography posts.

I decided to use neocities to start my personal website journey because I love their ethos and idea of what the internet should be about. Self expression, simplicity and good vibes.

I then turned to the Hugo static site generator to manage content creation and smooth over writing the most tedious and repetitive HTML tasks. After figuring out how to translate my mediocre CSS knowledge into Hugo’s theme system and learning about how great partials are I feel like I made some quick progress.

Taking a lot of hints and code from this excellent blog post by Bill Glover, I set up the beginnings of a photography section of the site. I just need to start adding content so that I can see where the seams come apart.
