I have been planning on creating a blog for myself for a pretty long time. I like to share my knowledge and random stuff I discover over time. As I recently started out on my journey with NixOS, I thought now would be a great time to build this small echo chamber for myself.

The backend

This blog is being generated by Zola, a (to me) new static generator. It’s pretty neat and, of course, blazingly fast¹ 🚀🚀🚀. Everything is fully declaratively managed using NixOS. Then, to let you see this page, I use Caddy as the web server, running on a cheap Hetzner VPS.

What’s to come?

I have pretty much just scratched the surface on NixOS and getting to know its “beauty”. I’ll probably use this blog as a place to vent or share random bits of knowledge in the future.
