This website was created as a bit of an experiment — to see if I could create a website for myself, as frugally as possible. The answer, it turns out, is yes. Mostly.
CMS
This website, like most websites I build is using Craft CMS. It's a beautiful content management system, with a wonderful community supporting it. It also has a generous free version that's the perfect fit for my use-case. Using a full-blown PHP-based CMS may seem like overkill for such a simple website, but I enjoy using it and I know the system inside and out. No need to learn the JAMSTACK flavor-of-the-day.
