Goodbye

Unfortunately, I've decided to delete this site for now. Currently, my workflow for this site is pretty stupid. I have a separate copy of the site's files on my PC (and no, I didn't clone the repo), and it's just plain HTML/CSS/JS, so every time I make a change, not only do I have to wade through raw HTML/CSS/JS, I have to remember to upload the files to this repo for the changes to go live. So the result is that this site is pretty out of date as I haven't done that in a couple months, and I don't currently have the motivation to try to redo my workflow to allow me to more directly push updates to this site (although I really should, it wouldn't be that complicated). So I've decided that for the forseeable future, this site is going down. I still have a local copy of all the site's files on my PC, and I hope to bring this site back at some point, but that will likely be whenever I get an actual domain name and can host the site on a server of my own. Additionally, that will allow me to experiment with more advanced server-side features.

I do not take this decision lightly. This also isn't the first time I've taken down this site. In fact this site has existed in one form or another since April 2024, and it originally used a random HTML template I found on the interwebs. But my horrible workflow got in the way of me pushing updates to the site, and for a time I unpublished the site, as it was hopelessly out of date and I had zero motivation to work on it. Last fall I brought it back up, updated the content, but then it languished for a while. Then I came back to it in April of this year, switched to Materialize (since the site was harder to expand with the template, and mobile compatibility was horrible), and updated it (again). I updated it a few times since then, but the last time I actually pushed an update to this site was over a month ago (until now). Since then, I've added a lot of new content, and my workflow has improved, since I set up a local web server on my PC, but that mainly allows me to easily test the site on multiple devices.

So where is this site going now? To be honest, as it was before, it was going nowhere, and that's part of why I'm deleting it. For now, it's going into the archives, aka only on my local PC. The only thing left up on GitHub Pages will be this page. Everything else has been deleted from the repo. So for now, goodbye. If/when I bring back this site, I will make sure to update this page with an announcement.
