Hey look! My own site!
|
||
|
|
||
|
In <a href="site">my last post</a>, I lamented not having a place to put
|
||
|
my own stuff. Today I actually took a couple minutes to register a domain, set
|
||
|
up DNS nonsense, and <i>upload</i>. Thus: this! Feels like I might have kinda
|
||
|
lost the thread re: #100DaysToOffload, but this is fun, too.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The most head-spinning part of the process was coming up with the name.
|
||
|
Ultimately taking the simple route, I ended up somewhere between neat and
|
||
|
cheesy. I also think "sagev" and "space" being the same length is odd, but
|
||
|
visually, I like it a lot.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The site is intended to be as small as possible, while still looking nice, and
|
||
|
following all accessibility guidelines. It's definitely quick to load, but
|
||
|
could afford a bit more polish on the second and third fronts.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I picked up the domain on Namecheap, and currently have everything hosted on
|
||
|
Netlify. May I never exceed the limits of a free tier! It would be cool to
|
||
|
self-host at some point, but as it stands, this is more than sufficient, and I
|
||
|
don't need to leave a computer running all the time.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I wish I had more to say about this, because having my own site feels pretty
|
||
|
exciting! But I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel for content as it is, so
|
||
|
I'll just say I'm looking forward to doing more with it!
