The Making of This Blog

Uncategorized

The Idea

A Steam profile-like website with a custom handmade image for the article backdrop, for this one being my notes. A simple basic HTML theme to ensure compatibility with any semi-modern browser.

The Core Principle: No monetisation ever. This is a blog for my satisfaction, I need projects in life and this one will hold record to all of them.

The Problem

I got the drive for this project on 3rd February, 2026 while on a Google Meet with my close and dear friend Dhairya, with the initial idea bearing seed a week prior. And I lack the proper setup to be able up pull this off comfortably, majorly, I’m working on an iPad and don’t have a debit card to pay for a domain.

The Workaround

Hosting: I’ll be using Github’s inbuilt website hosting as it will work for me just fine, and after acquiring a domain I’ll easily be able to migrate as well, since i retain all control of the website’s operation.

The Website: I would’ve much preferred to use WordPress to create a website, but I’m not fond of the idea of buying hosting services, I’d rather host it myself, which might happen some day, but for now, I’ll be sticking to basic html5. I’ll be sticking to StackEdit, that I definitely did not find while writing this.

Well shit, I’ll continue finishing the article on Obsidian (I switched for Joplin, its nice, but the app is clunky)

The initial launch of this website will not carry the proposed design, I’ll implement it over time

07-02-2026:
After a lot of trial and error through SSG’s I have knelt and decided to deploy a ServerlessWP on Vercel with my database on TiDB Cloud. I’ll be switching to local hosting when I move into my new house, but for now this setup holds. I’ll also buy the domain after trialing this setup for a while.
