This is my first post on phurst.org, my rebooted blog/portfolio/side-project/etc. My previous site was built with WordPress, but I didn’t really like WordPress, so I switched to a modern static site framework: Astro. I no longer have to rely on proprietary plugins and finnicky WYSIWYG editors, and now can do everything in simple code. But this has had a few drawbacks, such as writing everything for this blog in a code editor (my current favorite is Cursor because I already spent $200 on it. No sunk cost fallacy at all) and pushing to Git every time I want to make a change to a post. But, hopefully, I’m actually going to commit to posting at least once a week here and on my Bluesky. I’m going to post photos I took, programming projects, and maybe some 3D animation in Blender. If you’re interested, you can follow my RSS feed (preferred) or just following me on Bluesky. Anyway, I’m going to make the first push to Git, hope this works!
