Getmonero.org to switch to Astro with fresh design by rehrar
The Monero community has apparently finally reached consensus1 in today’s Monero Website Workgroup meeting2 to migrate the official Getmonero.org website from Jekyll to Astro3 and task rehrar 4 with creating the new design:

In short, unless there are EXTREMELY compelling reasons given now or after the fact (and they should be very very very compelling, not just “I wasn’t there”, we are now, d … ⌘ Read more

Yes, im also do not like Hugo so rewrite theme above to Jekyll (with some changes)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I remember that time. I built my own mess, then used someone else’s mess (WordPress). I then switched to Jekyll when Tom released it, then to Hugo, which I use today. I also love static web stuff!

This time I will keep this simple. Well, as simple as a person with slight OCD can keep it. I promise, I think. This little site is generated by [Jekyll](http://jekyllrb.c … ⌘ Read more

Create files on GitHub

Just very recently I wrote about me moving to Jekyll from WordPress:

After much thought, and tinkering, I decided to ditch my six year old

I am still getting a few things in place, like making sure all entries are properly converted to markdown, but overall I … ⌘ Read more
