andwati ec6401ac38 Replace Astro/Strapi site with Next.js static export
- Fresh structure: Next.js App Router + Tailwind v4 at the repo root, exported
  as static files (output: export) and served by static-web-server
- Remove the Strapi CMS, Astro app, Pagefind search, comments, old scripts,
  Lighthouse config and compose files; content in content/ is now plain
  markdown with YAML frontmatter
- Pages: About, Writing, Reading (3D bookshelf) and Portfolio, styled after
  adammaj.com
- SEO: metadata and canonicals, JSON-LD, generated OG images, sitemap, robots,
  RSS and JSON feeds, llms.txt
- Umami via PUBLIC_UMAMI_SCRIPT_URL / PUBLIC_UMAMI_WEBSITE_ID (build args)
- Dockerfile builds the export and serves it with sws.toml (security headers,
  clean URLs, .well-known, OG image content type, immutable asset caching)
- Prettier and cspell for content with a husky/lint-staged pre-commit hook
- Old redirect list dropped to start from a clean slate

How it begins

In this post-web2.0 age, people seem to blog less and less, and blogs seem to be dying slowly. People are separated in different Apps where the content is not searchable by search engines.

However, I still prefer to write using a blog.

Why this?

The best way to learn something is to teach others the knowledge that you have gained. Regurgitating that information will solidify it more firmly in your mind.

What I write?

Mostly random stuff and a few tutorials. I'll see where this goes.Although some of the blog posts may only be helpful to myself, but who knows, I hope they will be helpful to someone else in some day.

Static blog generator

I use hugo as a static site generator.After trying a couple of blogging platforms and trying to build a few from scratch I decided to throw in the towel and opt in for a ready made solution, no need reinventing the wheel.

Hugo is one of the most popular open-source static site generators. With its amazing speed and flexibility, Hugo makes building websites fun again.Hugo provides a robust theming system that is easy to implement but capable of producing even the most complicated websites.Hugo's Go-based templates provide just the right amount of logic to build anything from the simple to complex. For this site I decided to go with the even theme. The commenting system is implemented using Utterances

Blog site hosting

The site is hosted on github pages as evident by the *.github.io domain name.I prefer this mainly because it is free and I don't have to switch to a different hosting provider.
