The state of the site
This site is now made with Next.js and hosted on Netlify.
For over a year I used my own hand-crafted SSG. It was really nice. But:
- I wanted to learn Next.js.
- I love how fast the navigation is.
- I still don't need many dependencies, and I'm finding Next to be very well-behaved and stable.
- A lot of the site infrastructure is the same (I just copied it over).
So, this site isn't quite as hand-crafted as it used to be (or, at least, not quite as hand-crafted by me)--but you ought to be able to click around a lot more easily. And I still think that taking on dependencies is overrated.
