New year and new blog⌗

It has been a looong time since I last wrote a blog post. Not because I have been lazy, but because I have been busy with other things. I have been working on moving my blog to a new engine and I’m happy to announce that it’s finally ready.

What happened?⌗

Well, we all know that things turned out for the worst in 2020 with the pandemic. That year I and Kevin Chant did about 20 sessions for many different events. We also did a lot of work for the community and we were able to help a lot of people.

With that, I wasn’t able to write a lot of blog posts. I tried though but I just couldn’t find the time to do it.

Personally, things have been very tough the last couple of years as well. I went through a divorce and that didn’t make things easier. It was a very stressful time, but I’m happy to say that I’m doing much better now.

What’s new⌗

So now that things are better, I have more time to write again.

The blog has been moved to Hugo which is a static site generator. That combined with GitHub workflows makes it very easy to write and publish blog posts. I wasn’t satisfied with WordPress anymore and I wanted to move to something else. I’ve been using Hugo for a while now and I like it. It’s very easy to use and it’s very fast.

What’s next⌗

There are lots of parts moving and this year is going to be exciting for all the new stuff that’s coming.

I’m also working on a new project that I hope to be able to share with you soon.

You can be sure that I will be writing more this year and I hope you will enjoy it.

I will be presenting at the following events this year. Look at the sessions page for more information.

Feedback⌗

If you have any feedback, please let me know. I’m always looking for ways to improve my blog.
