Starter Blog

I write to you from an unconfigured vim in Windows Terminal. So yeah, starter blog is scuff. However, in the words of the incomparable Sia Karamalegos:

Your blog isn't the goddess Athena. It's not going to pop fully formed and all grown up out of your head. You aren't Zeus.

Zow!! So I cloned her starter repo and a few minutes later here we are.

VitePress #

It works! It's not overweight. I can customize it!? Or can I? Really a fine documentation site, for Vue stuffs. Did I mention that I'm a recovering backend golang dev / architect?

Golang is good yeah? Hugo is not Astro! (which I'm sure is great) B-but, maybe it is really.

Cool name, and Zach Leatherman speaks! The Need For Speed
