Back on a static site?!

It's been a minute, eh?

I've finally had the motivation to spend the last few days migrating back to Eleventy. I'm now well hooked into the Vercel ecosystem as well as a result. Not happy about that, but trade-offs! You always make them.

For someone who gets overwhelmed easily with the scale of tasks like these, Claude has been an immense help in making this move happen.

I'm most excited for the fact that I've been able to migrate the "likes" feature, including current counts.

Builds take less than 30 seconds, images are still served in AVIF/WEBP formats, and I have a couple of convenience bash scripts to create a new article post + rename files to reflect the final post title before publishing.

I'm relatively happy with the design, this is something that had been sitting in my drafts for over 2 years. Might tinker with it over the next few months to be a little more expressive, but for now, this works. 🙂

Equally excited to keep up with web standards and such in a low-stakes environment. 🐢
