Creating this site

Introduction As seems to be customary on technology related blogs, the first post about creating the blog itself. So here we are, this is the first post in my blog, detailing the steps I took to arrive here. Assessing the options I first got interested in static site generators years ago when my friend Fatih built his site with Jekyll. It felt very refreshing at the time since I was hosting my homepage on WordPress, which always seemed a little too bloated and overkill for my needs.
