My First Post
Overview
Why a blog? Why this blog? Why blog at all?
Why a blog?
- Easy for me to record what I'm planning to do, how well it went and provide a place to reflect
- I quite fancied learning about modern blogging platforms like Hugo (which I'm currently using) and doing some CI/CD deployment on Netlify via Github.
- It's better than starting a podcast
- Who doesn't need another lockdown project?
Why this blog?
- Built in Hugo - modern quick static website generator
- Hosted on Netlify via Github.
- Easy for me to maintain it and keep it up to date
- Great place to record my learning and progress, and it might be useful to someone else
Why blog at all?
- The discipline of blogging forces reflection, with reinforces learning and provokes a review of plans and goals
- Who doesn't need something to do in lockdown?
