Rebuilding this website

In this previous post, I outlined how I built this website. I was happy with the result, but I wanted to make some changes.

I was using NextJS to build the content, which brought a lot of overhead for what is essentially just static content. So, I decided to rebuild the site using plain HTML and CSS. I'm still using Tailwind for CSS, but I've removed almost all of the unnecessary JS.

Netlify is still used for hosting for now, though I'm considering a move to a privately hosted server using a RaspberryPi or similar. Unfortunately there's been a shortage of their chips for a while so once I find one that's reasonably priced I'll be able to make that move.
