Rebuilding this site

I rebuilt this site. It used to run on WordPress with a custom block theme; now it’s a static Astro site where every page, and every post, is a file in a git repository.

The reason is simple: I want to write here often, ideally most days, about the work I’m actually shipping. WordPress kept the content in a database I had to log into. Now a post is just a Markdown file. I write it, commit it, open a pull request, and it deploys. That’s a workflow I’ll actually stick with.

It also means the whole site, content and code, lives under one set of conventions: a formatter, a linter, a schema that every post has to satisfy, and a CI check that won’t let a broken build merge. Consistency is the point.

More soon. That’s rather the idea.
