this space is the result of a five-year quest for something that doesn't make me cringe.
in 2026, i decided to strip everything back. after years of experimenting with headless cms and databases, i went back to where i started: mdx and static files. no database, no magic, just code and content living together in a repo.
it's self-hosted with dokploy on a vps. faster, simpler, and feels more like home.
i’ve stolen ideas (with deep respect) from some of the best:
stepan pavlov, alexander sandberg, rauno freiberg, emil kowalski, dhrumil patel, thu le.
featured on dead simple sites, personalsites, blogscroll, nownownow, and bukmark.club.
