Friday, the 13th 🔪, may be a good date for starting a completely refreshed website. 😀 After the first handwritten incarnation of Larsolino.com, I decided it was too much work to update everything by hand. I did evaluate multiple interesting options, but I decided that I want to go with:
- A static web page doesn’t require a database.
- The flexibility to change the layout, structure, and features.
- Keep the information in the files on my hard drive.
- A solution that does not require paying 60 or more bucks every year, even if updates are rare.
I decided to maintain my existing HUGO knowledge after looking at possible alternatives like 11ty. The templates available helped a lot in making decisions. I am grateful for the free hosting provided by Cloudflare for this site.
