What is this site?

An exercise in tooling!

• Azure DevOps
• Azure Static Web App
• Vitepress
• TypeScript

How'd it go?

Pretty good, overall. I was just poking around the SWA portal and managed to resurrect my last attempt at an SSG site. (I was trying eleventy) Initially it was set up with GitHub Actions, but all the Azure tools there seemed kinda old? As an aside, I can't tell if this SWA stuff is just super duper new, or abandoned. In any event, I moved my shit to the Azure DevOps free tier stuff. And I have a private runner! (well played, Microsoft)

What's the point?

I wanted a place to jot down markdown in a place I could publish it. On the technical stuff, I wanted something sufficiently fiddly as to keep my attention, but simple enough to make progress with. I could have just paid for Obsidian or SubStack or whatever, but wheres the fun in that?
