Eleventy Migration

Back in 2018 I migrated my blog from WordPress to Hexo. Hexo is a static site generator running on Node.js.

Eleventy Resume Builder

Eleventy

I love the idea of static site generators (sometimes known as SSGs or SSBs – static site builders). They eschew the complexity of modern CMSes such as Wordpress. Instead of server-side code and databases, a static site generator is a script that, when run, transforms a folder of text files and templates into HTML.
