This website

History

This website I started in Fall 2022 but I’ve had a personal website since the start of highschool. Initially, I didn’t want to pay for hosting or a domain so it was hosted on a free web hosting service and the (sub)domain was jeremycarder.dx.am. Later on I registered my own domain at jeremycarder.xyz.

I didn’t have much on the website and it really didn’t serve any purpose, I just thought it was cool and a fun project to learn more about the web. The reason I started this website does have a purpose. I wanted an easy way for people to contact me, as well as a place to show off projects I’ve completed or that I am currently working on. In addition I plan to use this as a side project to experiment with new web technologies/tech stacks and learn more as a developer. Currently I’ve been learning Hugo as outlined below.

Technical

This website uses the Hugo static site generator with my own custom theme (inspired by similar minimalist themes). The site leverages GitLab’s continuous delivery pipeline so as soon as I push my changes it automatically builds the site for production and is in the production environment in about 15 seconds. The only problem with this is you can’t run any dynamic or server-side code, but that’s fine for my purposes.

Stay tuned!

I’ll be updating jeremycarder.ca semi-regularly with projects I’ve been working on to expand my skillset.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my piece of the internet, see you around.
