Personal website! It's simple, it's static, it's served out of GitHub Pages. People overcomplicate web development, but for 99% of cases, I don't believe you need anything more than some simple HTML + CSS (+ JS, barely). Especially for a personal website! Keep the web simple, folks. There's really nothing impressive about complexity.
The site's served at https://purajit.com.
I use the static site generator purajit/YASS, with the default structure.
Assets are stored separately in the purajit/assets.purajit.github.io repo to keep deploys artifacts and times small.
# To run the website locally on `localhost:80`
make run-server
# To stop the server
make stop-server
# To regenerate the website if changes were made to non-static files
# Changes will be instantly reflected
make generate-pages-cdnYou will need colima.
If you want to change assets and test it, you will have to clone the assets repo purajit/assets.purajit.github.io into the same parent directory as this one. To use locally-available assets, run
make generate-pages-localYou could also use this simply to avoid network requests.
