How this site is built

I wanted a small, fast personal site that I could keep up to date without fighting the tooling. Here is what I ended up with.

Stack

• Next.js with the App Router, rendered statically where possible
• Tailwind CSS for styling, with a handful of color tokens for light and dark themes
• MDX for posts like this one, stored right in the repository

Content lives next to the code

Projects, experience and skills are plain TypeScript files. Adding a project means adding an object:

{
  slug: "habit-tracker",
  name: "Habit Tracker",
  stack: ["Flutter", "Riverpod"],
  year: 2025,
}

No CMS, no database. Just a commit and a deploy.

Hosting

The site runs in a Docker container on my own server behind Nginx.
