That's when I stumbled upon Zola. Zola is a static site generator (SSG), similar to [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/), [Pelican](https://blog.getpelican.com/), and [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/).

The site is primarily a dark theme, in the future I'll also add theme toggling and maybe different palettes. +The site is a work in progress and is far from polished.
