Setting up this blog

The past week I have been finalizing the setup of this blog. For now, I have not had the space to write extensively about the process and my learnings.

For anyone that is interested, the code for this blog can be found in this repository on github.

Learnings

Already, I have learnt a great deal about:

• NextJS: Setup, building, images and configuring Markdown (MDX)
• Open Source Terraform modules (see the infrastructure folder in github)
• Prioritizing, or: How to get things done for a side-project
• Working in small increments: Even while working alone, small, well-defined PRs are vital
• Building Momentum: Simply publishing every little improvement I make

There is a big and growing list of improvements for this blog which you'll find in TODO.md in the repository. But there is also a big list of completed items - you are looking at this blog right now and that's the point! 😉

Thanks for reading - I'll keep you posted here!
