Colophon
Technology
This website is built with Nextra, a Next.js-based framework designed specifically for documentation and blog sites.
For styling, I use Tailwind CSS combined with shadcn/ui components, which gives me a solid foundation of accessible, customizable UI primitives while maintaining full control over the design system.
The site is deployed on Vercel, which provides seamless integration with Next.js and excellent performance out of the box.
Features
Content Management
All content is written in MDX and lives in the /content folder. This keeps things organized and makes it easy to manage posts, drafts, and other written material separately from the codebase.
Search
The site uses Pagefind for search functionality-a static search library recommended by Nextra that’s fast, privacy-friendly, and requires no backend infrastructure.
Tags System
I’ve enhanced the default tags system to make content discovery easier. You can browse posts by topic and find related content through intelligent tagging.
