I've started a blog to be able to share some projects I work on with my future self and curious others. It will mostly focus on stuff I do on my own time that might not be related to Blender. This site is still WIP, but two posts are up already.

@JacquesLucke great to read about some other projects you are up to! Those breads look delicious! I'm currently planning my own website as well, with pretty much the same requirements. Still working on the design concept though, will take a while until I have a first prototype. I'll probably go with Hugo, a minimalist design inspired by Swiss design and IBM Plex Sans as font.

@robertguetzkow Cool, good luck with your blog! Do you have any particular topics in mind you'd like to cover? I've used Hugo before for the Animation Nodes docs but never really felt at home there. Maybe that's also because it was mostly set up by Omar, not sure.

@JacquesLucke I have a couple topics in mind, such as my own work on cybersecurity and software dev, but it should also be a place for my various other interests. So potentially there'd be a gallery for digital art, recipes, D&D/TTRPGs and whatever else I'm fascinated by at the moment. Hugo seemed like the most feature complete option for an OSS SSG. I'm not a massive fan of the Go templating syntax, perhaps because I have to use it for Helm charts at work, but that's the only downside I've seen so far.

The second post is about how I got into sourdough bread baking: https://jlucke.com/blog/my-bread-journey/

@JacquesLucke Astro seems quite interesting! Having xp with Hugo I went trying Zola for my blog! Images is still a thing TODO tho. Nice that Astro has you covered on that👍

@JacquesLucke regarding usage stats: I can understand that it might be interesting and it's cool you got a non-google solution that doesn't need cookies but no one looks at all these graphs all the time and we expose our visitors to (however lightweight it might be) tracking...
As I also primarily write for my future self 😊 I found my peace with not having any stats.

@ewerybody I definitely considered that and I do consider removing that at some point. Right now, as I'm getting started, this is quite interesting data for me though, guess it might become more boring over time, will see. I also want to cross check the Plausible stats a bit with server logs to see if that data is a good enough approximation for me which would make any client side analytics unnecessary.

@JacquesLucke Nice and clean blog, my favourite kind.
Readability is key.
