Birth of blog
why
I want to write about things that I'm doing, problems I'm solving, and art I'm creating.
what
I really want to make videos, but the barrier is high. I'll start with this. I want writing a post to be incredibly easy. I don't need fancy formatting. Markdown should work.
how
- Used 11ty for turning markdown into html.
- Deeply inspired by this amazing blog.
- Mostly copied the eleventy base blog.
- Modified the shades-of-purple prism theme for syntax highlighting
- Deployed using Vercel.
- Tried with GitHub Pages for a while, and it wasn't as easy as it should be.
- Vercel was.
result
here's what code looks like:
import Foundation
extension Array {
mutating func moveItem(from: Int, to: Int) {
insert(remove(at: from), at: to)
}
}
