This Website

You can check the code out on Github.

Making this website taught me so much about the web

I had to create a website (more on that later in the article), host it with a small server on Linode and buy a domain name on Ovh.

It was a whole adventure, I improved my knowledge on linux administration, ssh, and especially web development.

The website

The website is made with Hugo, a static website generator, which allows me to write the content of my website using Markdown, which I’m very comfortable with.

Although I am using a theme (Hermit theme), I heavily modified it to fit my purpose, using html, css, and javascript.

The whole challenge was to allow the website to still be edited in markdown.

The hosting

My server is hosted on a “Nanode”, a VPS provided by Linode.
