Building Scdotnetv3 on Astro
I am still building this website on Astro. I think I have an MVP already. The site exists and I have been posting to it continuously. But of course, if you go and look at certain places, and pages, you would know that there is still a lot left to do.
2026-07-07 21:10 - Finally completed the redesign of the home page. I have been wanting to do this for so long, happy that it’s done now. For so long I was trying to solve this with a grid, today I thought let’s ask Mythos to do it - it was the last date for me to use Mythos for free or without API pricing, whatever, it worked. It explained to me succinctly why the approach I eventually went with works and why the card based approach wouldn’t. And so, here we are. I consider this task done now. There will always be little things I will continue tweaking. But that does not require continued focus.

This was of course my topic at CITCON'26. I care about learning and I have used Claude to build the website of my dreams.

On Tuesday, I marked my long-running (nine-month-long) task of building my website on Astro. Most of my site was ready since a long time. I was able to have all the different categories of notes I wanted to have. I had a mostly automated workflow to get a note in my vault to the GitHub repo that has all the code it needs to deploy my site. Some things, namely the about and the colophon pages, were still left to be done. But I was happy with where I was.
