I originally built this site using Astro, which worked well… until it didn’t. When I finally got around to writing a new post, the deployment pipeline failed due to breaking dependencies. A quick upgrade to the latest major version didn’t go as planned, and instead of wrestling with it, I decided to switch to something simpler.

Enter Hugo — a pure static site generator known for its speed, simplicity, and minimal dependencies. While migrating, I also created a custom theme based on PaperMod. Say hello to term, a lightweight, terminal-inspired design that keeps things clean and minimal.

Oh, and while I was at it, I figured… why not host it on GitHub Pages?

Done and done. ✅
