Building My Personal Website with Astro

This is my first blog post. I built this site using Astro — a static site generator that ships zero JavaScript by default, making it incredibly fast.

Why Astro?

I wanted a place to write, share projects, and post notes. Astro’s content collections made it easy to manage everything as Markdown files right in my repo.

The Stack

Astro — framework
Vercel — hosting
Markdown/MDX — content
