Where It All Began
Hi! Welcome to my first post. In this post, I will cover all the things why I made this site, so hopefully it will give you an insight into everything with a detail about it.
Why Blogging?
I believe this will be a common reason why most people also started a blog: it is sharing. Whether sharing their knowledge, experience, or even their hobbies. All those things are also the reason why I have started to made one. I would like to share any knowledge or tips that I got, as well as any topics or ideas that I may come up with for this blog.
I started the first blog in 2023, but back then I archived and discontinued to fix and improve things on my website because I felt unsatisfied.
Blogging inspired me from everyone who love to share their problems with a solution and any kind of knowledge. This brings me to share my knowledge by writing a post in a clear and understandable way.
This blog was created with Hugo and hosted on GitHub Pages. I ever tried using Cloudflare Pages, but it seems a bit much for me so if I need to host static site, I would choose GitHub Pages.
I need to mention why not just WordPress or any other commercial CMS? People know it is free, easy to get started with drag and drop, click here and there, and a lot of plugins and themes. But even though it is free, the advanced features are limited with a paid plan, and you do not have full control of how your website works under the hood.
Just like any other SSG (Static Site Generator) such as Astro and Hexo, Hugo it is for a static site, meaning there is no server-side processing involved (except hosting the site) so it is less vulnerable to security risks. In addition, Hugo is fast, well maintained, and has a large community.
What Will You Expect From This Blog?
The topics I will cover on this blog can be varied. Anything that I would like to write from ideas that are going through. But most likely it will be topics about Linux and a few tips about various subjects.
I am expecting that I will post at least one post either every one or two months, and hopefully the content will bring something useful to you as a reader.
How I Maintain This Blog?
I maintain this blog as much as I care about my writing skills. To make it less complex, I will provide a simple explanation for each topic, so both native and non-native English speakers can easily understand my word choices.
Challenges I Faced
The challenges of writing a post on the blog are only one thing: my English skill issue. Sometimes I need the translators and LanguageTool to fix my grammar. So if you are reading this as a native English speaker, you get the point of how I wrote. Regardless of that, I am always trying to improve the language, which is also quite challenging for a non-native English speaker like me.
So that is the end of this post. Thank you for reading until the end. If you have any questions or suggestions, drop me an email, I would glad to answer it!
