It’s a retro experience with a text adventure game. I wrote it to prove to myself that I kinda knew WebGL after shutting down our browser gaming startup.
Only one person has beaten the game. Most don’t make it inside the building. Guess I’m not a great game designer ;)

Recently rewrote my old site after feeling limited by markdown and decided to start from a clean slate and write a blog engine in TCL.
Though I don't have a post up yet that uses any new features, it supports LaTeX without requiring client side JS, as well as collapsible elements.
It's also easy to add new types of content (such as a graphviz element), since an article is just a TCL script, for example:
https://github.com/wooosh/blog/blob/master/pages/articles/fr...
I intend to replace utteranc.es for comments with a self-hosted solution, as I'm not super happy with relying on an external resource without subresource-integrity, especially for something that requires login (making it a great target for phishing).
https://nikitavoloboev.xyz
It's due for big update though. Most of the content is my wiki: https://github.com/nikitavoloboev/knowledge
I'm a Philosophy student, and I keep a blog where I post essays on Philosophy and Computer Science- as well as the fun that results in their intersection.
Lately, I've been playing around with the NixOS operating system, and I wrote a guide on Building a Philosophy Workstation with NixOS. In it, I document the process of setting up a computer for the use and practice of Philosophy:
https://shen.hong.io/nixos-for-philosophy-installing-firefox...
Although I wrote the guide with Philosophy students in mind, it has a surprising amount of overlap with software development and programming-- which will make it useful for Computer Science students as well.
For an example of a more straightforward work on philosophy, I wrote a dialogue on the metaphysics of being, using an analogy with chess and cryptography:

I’m actually really proud of it—I love the way it looks and feels. I wanted the site to be playful but still professional, and to feel "modern" without being flat. Feel free to tell me how I did.
Everything is handwritten HTML + CSS + Javascript; I avoided even using a build system. I did use some tiny Javascript libraries, but I gave myself a limit: the site had to contain more bytes of my own code than other people's code.
The site also supports back to IE11 and Safari 6, as long as Javascript is turned on. (And it works without Javascript in modern browsers.)
http://egypt.urnash.com
I draw stuff.
(Perhaps someday I will feel like making my site work better with phones. I last did major work on it before that was a concern. If there is something you would like to see me draw then perhaps we can make a deal that fixes this, whether by you getting hip-deep in Wordpress, or by paying me a couple thousand bucks for something I can knock out in a week so I can finally bother getting my local dev copy working and fix it myself.)
https://beepb00p.xyz I mostly write about data liberation, quantified self and knowledge management.

I've written a book titled Junior to Senior[0] that is soon to be published by Holloway. Now that I'm done with the majority of the writing for the book I'm shifting my focus to my blog to share all of my knowledge I've gained throughout my career. You can think of it as the advice I wish I had when I was working towards a promotion to a senior role.
I'll cover topics like:
1. Choosing a career path (IC vs. Manager, generalist vs. specialist)
2. Qualities of a senior engineer
3. How to deal with imposter feelings
4. Working with your manager
5. What to do when you make mistakes
6. How to ask good questions
7. How to read unfamiliar code
8. Adding value
9. Managing risk
10. Delivering results
11. How to communicate effectively
12. Work life balance
13. How to ask for a promotion to a senior role

Been around for almost 17 years now. Jekyll-based site, all custom designed myself, hosted on Netlify with media on S3/Cloudfront. One section in particular I'm fond of is my set of "stuff i use" pages, where the sections have icons I custom designed: https://paulstamatiou.com/stuff-i-use/
I made https://will.institute/ as a place to post my stuff (mostly photos) after having bailed on most social media. The existing content was migrated over from my old Instagram account, plus some newer photos that I went back and picked out from between when I stopped using IG and when I built the site a few months ago.
It’s a static site built in Swift with Publish and a custom theme: https://github.com/JohnSundell/Publish
Since I got out of the habit of posting anything on Instagram for a couple years I haven’t really gotten back into it for my own site, but one of these days I’ll put some new pictures up!
https://cookie.engineer
Built my website as a fun project over the holidays and experimented a little with fun to use UI/UX elements while trying to preserve as much backwards compatibility as possible.
Copy/paste uses markdown, which is used to generate the static site, print stylesheets, responsive layout, an interactive avatar, a crypto scavenger hunt, konami code, zerg rush, and works without javascript or even in old browsers like links/lynx. CV uses web crypto api to preserve secrecy etc.
Wanted to maybe build a little OWASP CTF for it at some point, too...
Its heartwarming to see these personal sites/blogs.
I really enjoy this kind of enthusiasm, interest and curiosity about tech things, and personally I feel like there's been continuously less of that in my peers at every day job.
Also, people (myself included) complain that "web 1.0 is gone" and so on, but here are the survivors of that era.
My site is sciencemadness.org. I started it when I was still an undergraduate some 20 years ago now (!). It's mostly about chemistry and nuclear technology. My personal interests include chemistry, nuclear power, nuclear weapons, materials science, and post-fossil energy in general. I don't get to do much with those interests at my job, though. I'm a software engineer like many others here.
Content on my site has been linked from here a bunch of times [1] -- most often, my scan of the book Ignition! An Informal History of Liquid Rocket Propellants by John D. Clark:
https://library.sciencemadness.org/library/books/ignition.pd...
But I'd suggest checking out the whole library, not just that one book:
https://library.sciencemadness.org/library/
Also the forum:
https://www.sciencemadness.org/whisper/
It used to be very simple to register but I got tired of the endless cat-and-mouse games with link spammers. Now you'll need to email to get an account, and I deal with the registration requests at irregular intervals. But there's no gatekeeping. You don't need any particular qualifications or background to join.
I mostly participate here on HN under another account name that I don't want linked to this one. My real life identity is easily derived from my web site and I don't want that linked to everything else I say on HN.
I write stories to teach Japanese without relying on translation (like the lingua latina per se illustrata). I have been working on it almost every day for the past 3 years. I am so proud of the result. Every page solves the tiny problem of introducing a few new words in context. That's not hard per se but the accumulation of these makes the result unique.

Rolled my own static site generator in Clojure and have been updating it over the past four years. Its full of overly specific automations that make updating easier for me. One of the goals was to not use javascript, in order to make it extremely archivable, while still having a look that is interesting to me.
The only reason it is not open source is that most features are only related to me. I have some mini 'easter eggs' in there, and more to hopefully come. As well as some generative content that changes each time I make an update. I would call the codebase 'rustic' :)
https://jason.nabein.me
My personal website, effectively what I wish I had when I was younger, but more professionally tuned now.
JS free, Lynx friendly, and under 250KB! [1]
Content overall is sparse as I'm in the midst of a major project before traveling, and my documents are scattered between Zim and random folders. Really looking forward though to publishing some of the writings I Have in my Zim drafts area.
(Also, I'm not sure why but mobile formatting doesn't seem to work properly on some phones, compared to the source css from benharr.is. if anyone can point out why, it would be great to resolve that)
I am also working on https://doyouhaveabackup.com as a similar site to https://worldbackupday.com, but less corporate, and more accessible.
Who on earth would take industrial CNC servos, wire 9 of them up to a hunk of metal, sit in it (at a non-zero risk of something electrically going wrong) and get thrown around on race car sims. Spending way too much mental energy than is healthy on car simulators, I designed a "G-Seat" and put the plans up on Github.
I love getting in after 1,000 comments, let's do this:
Built with my own site-builder and advertising my own site-builder!
Turns out nobody registers for a free account or just signs up. All my business comes from building websites for people and word of mouth.
I optimised the thing for speed of building websites above all else, which helps, seeing as I'm a one-person operation.
https://xenodium.com
All posts are written to a giant org file.
https://github.com/xenodium/xenodium.github.io/blob/master/i...
This wasn’t by design but more accidental. The file started as my notes, and eventually exported it to html as a single page (using built-in export). That page grew too large over time, so I wrote some custom elisp code to split into multiple html pages served by GitHub pages:
https://github.com/xenodium/xenodium.github.io
The custom elisp code I wrote isn’t particularly elegant, pretty, nor reusable but does the job for me.
In short, it’s a frankenstenian hack of sorts I’ll likely regret at some point, but at the moment fairly maintenance-free.
I also got these pages for apps I built, just plain 'ol html:
I love my portfolio site: https://yagmurcetintas.com/
It started as a portfolio to get a job as a web developer, but it became more and more fun to work with over the past 2 years and I started to feel genuine love to it. It kept me motivated to move on and learn more when I was feeling empty and useless.
Here's the source code if you want to check: https://github.com/cakebatterandsprinkles/portfolio-gatsby

I used to run this on wordpress when it was first released. Built a few terrible looking themes for it too. This was a redesign from that time. It was doing using the YUI toolkit. Phones were not a thing then so I didn't consider that. Many of the ideas were taken from snippets of CSS Zen Garden. It's generated using Jekyll and has disqus for comments. I wrote an emacs mode https://github.com/nibrahim/Hyde to manage the blog. Much of the content is outdated. I don't actively blog anymore.
This is hosted on a shared hosting service called hcoop which I got onto in 2001 or so and have been on ever since. The domains were registered on an Indian registrar (net4) which went under and I migrated them to namecheap a month or two ago.

I just remade it to move away from WordPress. The site is a single PHP file that generates the site based on folders, images, and markdown files. Also pretty proud of the slideshow, though it doesn’t seem to animate properly on all browsers.
I have a blog[0], I write stuff. I don't have a job yet but I blog about my personal life and on technical problems, feelings, and stuff.
I also have a website with other things here and there [5].
The blog itself is literally a git repository, browsable here[1]. Whenever I push, it runs a git hook that executes build commands. The blog is composed of markdown files.
All the blog can be rebuilt by following the instructions and is meant to be as platform-agnostic as possible, meaning you could host it under any webserver under any path, links are relative, etc.
The blog system I use is blogit [2]; originally created by Pedantic software but has been heavily modified by yours truly[4]. Under the hood it's literally a makefile, unix `sed,grep,etc` to make tagging and other static stuff. It uses the markdown parser discount[3] to parse markdown into html. It is fully static and you can deploy it and just put a simple python http server on it. I use lighttpd, because I have some services set up.

Named after our cats. We're using Gatsby and it uses JavaScript for displaying a static website; both of those things I dislike. Nothing is special about it, except...
It's running on a laptop in my living room. There's a little Wireguard tunnel connecting it to a Hetzner server nearby. The packet routing should all be done in the kernel of both machines so it ought to be snappy.
I like the fact that that I'm sorta the one shaking hands with your HTTPS client when you connect. I like that the website goes down with a power outage. Maybe I'll get a Honda generator. I plan on getting redundancy once Google Fiber is done installing in our neighborhood.

Mostly just has my (tech-focused) blog, although there are aspirational placeholders for the important things in life, like coffee and homemade pizza.
It has been hard to make time to write personal blog posts since my second kid was born, but I have a couple of drafts in progress that I aim to work up soon, at least when I take time off work.

Previously had a fancy schmancy Vue site with components and good practices and a good (for an engineer) design—the works. Then one day I was in the mountains with a bad connection and couldn’t even npm install the dang thing to work on it. Rage-rewrote the whole thing in raw HTML on the spot, haven’t looked back.
Lots of people have posted. I think it would be nice if everyone who links to their site commented on two others
https://www.benibela.de/index_en.html
All my old coding projects. Static HTML generated from XML files with XQuery implemented in Pascal. Before that I was generating it with a custom Java-based generator language, which had a rudimentary version of functions, loops, and XPath, but mostly did string concatenation. Before that I had a Delphi-based generator, which only did string replacement, to create the same HTML layout. Is it not interesting that I ported it from Pascal to Java back to Pascal, because Pascal had much better performance than Java?
https://benovermyer.com/
My site hearkens back to the spirit of the old days. Except for a custom web font, it doesn't have many visual frills. No CSS framework, almost no JS. Lots of random content; it's not just a blog or a resume, though it has those too.
https://blog.cyrusroshan.com
Recently redesigned my blog to show previews of the posts before you read them. Though I can't say I thought of the idea on my own--it's inspired by the way Dan Luu screenshots the beginning of his blog posts whenever he posts them on twitter (for example, https://twitter.com/danluu/status/1472142011918471170?s=20&t...)
https://seirdy.one/
Seems like a really simple site that uses a mix of browser defaults with light CSS enhancements, but I put about 13k words of thought into it:
https://seirdy.one/2020/11/23/website-best-practices.html
It's really hard to get a site to work well on a <2-inch (<5cm) viewport with switch access for astigmatic colorblind users on a feature phone experiencing packet loss, but I think I pulled it off nicely. CSS-optional, no JS (blocked by CSP).
Also has mirrors to a Tor hidden Web service and a Gemini capsule, all hosted on the same VPS.
I like the "small web" and joined a few webrings (and Gemini orbits), and try to make this static site a member of the IndieWeb.
Bookmarks are generated from my bookmarks manager, WIP music ratings from MPD coming soon.
An incomplete list of use-cases I tried to accommodate:
- Screen readers
- Switch access
- Keyboard navigation, with the Tab key or caret navigation
- Navigating with hand-tremors
- Content extraction (e.g. “Reader Mode”)
- Low-bandwidth connections
- Unreliable, lossy connections
- Metered connections
- Hostile networks
- Downloading offline copies
- Very narrow viewports (much narrower than a phablet)
- Mobile devices in landscape mode
- Frequent window-resizers (e.g. users of tiled-window setups)
- Printouts, especially when paper and ink are rationed (common in schools)
- Textual browsers
- Uncommon graphical browsers
- the Tor Browser (separate from “uncommon browsers” because of how “safest” mode is often incompatible with progressive enhancement and graceful degradation)
- Disabling JavaScript (overlaps with the Tor Browser)
- Non-default color palettes
- Aggressive content blocking (e.g. blocking all third-party content, frames, images, and cookies)
- User-selected custom fonts
- Stylesheet removal, alteration, or replacement
- Machine translation to right-to-left languages
https://bf.wtf
I’m a designer/programmer/gamedev so I tried to bring it all together. React + stitches + react-three-finer.
It’s open source (link is on the desktop site).
http://maksimov.ski. Very simple interactive page that I made for fun.
https://slightknack.dev
Static site using Zola + custom theme. Something between a blog and a portfolio. (Yeah I really need to cut down on the image sizes on the home page.) Here's the source:
https://github.com/slightknack/slightknack.dev
I worked pretty hard on this site, and there are a number of Easter eggs (check the 404 page)!
https://arjkb.gitlab.io
Just my blog. Nothing spectacular. Static site built with Hugo.
It's mostly devolved into a public notepad where I record things that I might want to refer later.
I wanted to update it more frequently, but blogworthy things don't seem to be happening (and as a rule I do not want to blog about work). Anyway, I do have plans to work on more interesting things, so it should get updated more frequently.
The theme for that site was also made by me, and it was available in the Hugo Themes showcase about 4 years ago. But I've left the theme stagnant, and I think it's now been removed from the showcase.
I was a student at the University of New Mexico and there's a secret post (you wouldn't find the link if you navigate the site the usual way) here at https://arjkb.gitlab.io/unm-guide/
People intending to go to UNM frequently asked me about how it's like over there, so I wrote this to distribute it to those people. It might be interesting to understand how things Americans take for granted might be not so obvious to foreigners.
https://nuxx.net
It's where I've put my personal thoughts / things I want to publish publicly for... years now. The focus is more on the content than the platform, so it's a basic WP site that's easy for me to get content into.
(Yes, I know there's some image/link rot. That's what 20+ years of one website gets you without a tremendous amount of navel-gazing.)
https://qdice.wtf
A dicewars/kdice clone written in Elm. It's a turn-based multiplayer board game.
I have put quite some work into it over the years. Sadly, it (almost) never reached the point where humans would play each other, which is where the fun part happens. Alliances, backstabbing, etc.
People play steadily against the bots though, so at least I got something going.
https://varun.ch, having my fairly common first name (and the correct ccTLD) is pretty cool! It's just a static HTML website hosted with Vercel.
https://amy.gg
Pretty plain, but I always feel guilty about the 500K of images it loads...
https://jfloren.net
Artisanal hand-crafted CSS on a mix of hand-written HTML and Markdown-to-templated-HTML pages, with a webserver I wrote myself in Go (well, stitched together the standard library HTTP code myself...)
It took a bit of fussing to find CSS settings which would scale nicely on mobile and look good on all sorts of devices, but I'm proud that my site degrades relatively gracefully and is readable in lynx, Plan 9's abaco browser, and a $20 feature phone's browser.
I wish I updated my blog more frequently, but there's a couple neat projects in there.
edit: i also made an effort a few years back to eliminate all external resources and javascript (web fonts, analytics, etc.), except where unavoidable (i.e. when I want to inline a Youtube video). I also took it out from behind Cloudflare, partly because they were injecting JS. I'm pleased with how it performs and how it's handled HN traffic on a couple front-page occasions.
http://bradleybuda.com/
Can't remember where I "borrowed" the CSS from originally. Also I'm past-due to turn on TLS.
https://bret.io
Started as Jekyll, but then converted to just markdown in GitHub.
My CMS is just Github basically, you can basically read and navigate the files in Github with very little content loss:
https://github.com/bcomnes/bret.io/tree/master/src
The loose collection of build tools are wrapped up in this tool: https://github.com/bcomnes/siteup
Its deployed to Neocities with this custom action: https://github.com/bcomnes/deploy-to-neocities
My stylesheet base lives here https://github.com/bcomnes/mine.css
https://ajnasz.hu
A personal blog mostly in Hungarian, lately some English posts which is far from perfect, but some might find useful if a search engine honor the site.
It's 16 years old, started with drupal, then some years ago I changed to metalsmith [1], because the content isn't dynamic at all, and it was fun to try something new. I also started to move to hugo, but they didn't merge the pr [2] which would have helped in the transition. :(
The look is still similar to what it was in the beginning, in terms of colors at least.
[1] https://github.com/metalsmith/metalsmith [2] https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/pull/7295
https://hardi.design
I've had some form of personal site for more than 15 years now, usually with a hand-coded theme. It's unremarkable technically, but as a UX designer, it certainly gives me more confidence that I know how the web works.
Made with Saber (Vue.js) using Vercel.
https://peterburk.github.io
It used to be http://peterburk.free.fr
(but I wanted .com)
then
(but it was blocked in China)
then
and a redirect from
and from 2014 it was
But now Github don't offer a .com subdomain, only .io. So I really wanted to move it to another free host, but haven't found an appropriate server that doesn't require subscription fees.
I guess I'm lost in the British Indian Ocean Territories, or the Input/Output. Whatever io is supposed to mean.
https://muffinman.io
My longest living website of any kind. Technical blog, mostly frontend and javascript, but recently I created a section for my generative, pen plotted art.
It is made with Zola and deployed on GitHub Pages. Design is my own, I think the fourth iteration.
https://calebvandermaas.com/
Mine is still under heavy development and I am working on a small feature that highlights that fact. In the meantime, here is my personal site that I built after just a year of programming experience.
https://ulvgard.se
Reverse engineering algorithms and results from papers. I love the process of walking backwards from the results and figure out how they were achieved, uncovering what the authors glanced over or failed to mention at all.
Two mentions:
- Facebook Prophet: https://ulvgard.se/articles/trend_and_seasonality_decomposit...
- One-shot neural network training using hypercubes: https://ulvgard.se/articles/one_shot_training_neural_network...
https://vishaltelangre.com
I write about general programming stuff (but not active for a year now).
A little zine book on Consul I had written last year (it's free, btw) - https://vishaltelangre.com/books/consul.
Also, the site lists some fun projects I have written in my spare time (in many languages such as Rust, Swift, Elm, Elixir, Go, Ruby and JavaScript). For e.g. https://old-version.vishaltelangre.com has a REPL like interactive interface written in Elm; GitHub link can be found using one of the commands.
https://notes.volution.ro/
This is my (new) personal blog (i.e. rants), notes, remarks, snippets, etc. It's doesn't (yet) hold too much content, mainly because publishing something requires time to polish the text, but I do keep adding to it...
Regarding the look-and-feel, I try to keep it as minimalist as possible, while also having some personal style; it even works in Netsurf. But, if one doesn't like that style, one can just use the `View -> Page Style -> No Style` option (at least in Firefox) and things should still look OK.
Also I've made sure that it looks acceptable even in console browsers such as `lynx`, `links`, `w3m`, etc.
https://dddiaz.com/ You can see my real time blood glucose ( data comes from a continuous glucose monitor I am wearing ) and read some blog posts I have written analyzing my own genome (https://dddiaz.com/post/my-t1d-variants/ ), or using ml with glucose data to predict what days I exercised (https://dddiaz.com/post/glucose-datascience/ ).
https://andrewingram.net/
I’m a bit tired of the design, I want to rethink it to better support short form content; but also because I’m a bit bored of the hyper-minimalist Medium-esque aesthetic. It’s actually fairly overengineered, so I’ll make sure the next version is even more overengineered.
I’ve also been working on a level viewer for Mario Maker 2, had some fun problems. Next step is to switch the rendering to webgl: https://www.smm2-viewer.com/courses/BMV-CN5-4DG
Hi, I write popular science articles on space exploration as well as the world's only Moon exploration newsletter! https://blog.jatan.space/about
I also have a general blog for all my other interests, including blogging, tech and web, poems, science and anything else interesting enough to hit publish: https://thoughts.jatan.space/about
My blogs are my professional and personal sites, and it's so satisfying to write there. Unconstrained from the vicious control of social media.
https://doc.callmematthi.eu/ This is basically a personal documentation (mostly about Linux and related topics) that I've decided to share with the world, since most of it comes from the Internet. It's a collection of "HowTo's", tips, and numerous details about computing that I'm happy to read again after forgetting them. Under the hood, it's written (with Emacs) into XML files, and rendered to HTML by XSL style sheets. The online version is completely static and is served by Nginx + Varnish.
https://uguu.org/
I made a few ASCII art code -> https://uguu.org/sources.html
To add to the pile: http://www.drusepth.com
It's a wordpress site with a few hundred short stories, serials, and poems that I go back to every time I try a new platform and ultimately decide no writing platform is actually good (yet). Maybe one day I'll build a good one and write there; until then, wordpress suffices.
Bonus poem about leaving Amazon: http://www.drusepth.com/poetry/thing-a-week-36-a-quest-for-r...
https://lancebachmeier.com/
That's my personal/professional site I've had for many years.
https://bachmeil.github.io/online-writing/
That's a meaningless site I created to show how easy it is to create a blog/website with Github Pages without leaving the browser or doing anything technical. You can make a few tweaks to your repo, write posts in VS Code in the browser, and poof you have an acceptable blog or website.
https://jmmv.dev/
I’ve been blogging since 2004 and the site has been hosted in LiveJournal, Blogger, brief experiment on Medium, Jekyll on GitHub Pages, and now Hugo on GitHub Pages as well (but planning to go to Netlifly).
And because I see people talking about personal projects as well, I’ll also mention https://endbasic.dev/ which is also “a website” and is keeping my early mornings quite busy :)
https://jasonmaa.com
A Jekyll site (that briefly became a React SPA at one point) with some blog posts, mostly reflections on my projects. I've been trying to expand into writing about other things.
A digital graveyard for projects I abandoned. I still wanted to write in Markdown but Jekyll felt like too much for one page, so I ended up writing a small static site generator for it using Jinja.
https://karecha.com
I do not track traffic to the site. The site exists for me to believe that I am talking to the world. That feels good.
https://rish.dev - I really didn't want to bother with CSS, so I leaned hard into plaintext and this was the result.
I created mine initially as an aid to my job search with some GNU/Linux stuff, as well as a writeup on my journey learning Robot Operating System (ROS), but I have been wanting it to be more of a creative outlet now that I have gotten the self hosting bug. I have some photography stuff up there right now, and I hope to have some more DIY car camping stuff and educational content there soon. https://wilsonjholmes.com

Content is statically generated from an AsciiDoc text file wiki managed by a Vim plugin. Though I write heavy Web applications for a living, there's no JS on my personal website except on specific pages with interactive tools. After a revamp a couple years ago, all dynamic server-side actions are handled with old-school CGI applications. Retro and loving it.
I'm really enjoying looking at everyone else's sites!

Personal portfolio site - mostly hand spun late last year (HTML, CSS, a sprinkle of PHP) as a way to get my portfolio off of WordPress and to have some fun. Used a plugin for the scroll animations and a plugin for the form.
The blog is a self-hosted WordPress site on a sub-domain. It's a work in progress and has a terrible load time. Been thinking of scrapping it in favor of something more simple and rudimentary.
Here is mine:
I'm just starting out with writing blogs, but haven't finished the first post yet. If you want to have a sneak peek, go to https://www.bunkernet.dev/post/intro-to-programming-battlesn.... Please, let me know what you think, would love some feedback!

Professional blog I've ran for over 10 years now. Started it because I wanted to separate coding and more professional stuff from the rants of my personal blog.
For a while I used to get a pretty decent amount of side work from it just helping people with their Apache configs/mass redirects. Had a nice little cottage industry. It's mostly died off in the last couple years. Everyone moved to nginx?
It's built on a creaky but honestly very expressive PHP/MySQL framework I built for the company I worked for at the time, 10 years ago. Bits and pieces of it have been moved into a modern MVC and I've got a front controller that sends requests to the MVC, if that fails it falls back to the old framework. Works surprisingly well. There's also a handful of Go on the back end and the front end (WASM). It's a mess, but it's my mess. I know people like to use pre-packaged stuff these days but just fiddlin' with it is fun.
The layout of the homepage is currently a little stretched because I can't get the GitHub gists of the most recent post to behave. My homepage gets like no traffic though, so I'm not too worried. The individual page is on the other hand get quite a bit.
I've been experimenting with a static-site generator for the photography half of my website trying to make the process of getting the photos off my camera and laid out in a cohesive form easier. I've tried to minimize my use of Javascript and lean on modern HTML features to keep my images high quality but fast loading (Primarily by using instead of ![]()
)Most posts are laid out by hand like this one:
https://danielbeadle.net/photo/Ample-Hills-Bike-Tour.html
Posts are written in Markdown with some custom syntax
[[
This is place for a title
This is a place for a description

]]
Two images juxtaposed next to each other (on desktop) can be formatted like this: [[
Image #1 Title | Image #2 Title
Image #1 Desc | Image #2 Desc
2021-01-02 | 2021-01-02
DSC_0454.jpg|DSC_0465.jpg
side-by-side|side-by-side
]]
This format works well for storing my website in Git, and of course the resulting HTML files can be exported anywhere, but it's much more fun to lay out images visually. I've built a quick and dirty little layout tool for that: https://danielbeadle.net/photo/author/This tooling isn't in a state to be used by anyone else but if you've been thinking about photo-first blogging please chime in!

Kind of obvious, I guess. Nothing of note at the moment. Clean slate.
Thinking about what to do with it. Will likely end-up being a web version of my fairly large repository of engineering notes and data across innumerable disciplines.
Not sure what platform to use. I don't want to use Wordpress. What would you use for something like this (considering I am extremely busy)? In other words, some kind of a easy to deploy, manage and maintain personal-made-public knowledge management system.
I know. I know. Someone is going to say "Use WP with this plugin".
I would enjoy being able to bring some of the material to life beyond simple display using Python. This would call for Django and something for the front end. I'm just not sure I have the time to do this right now. Maybe I should wait.
My material spans hundreds of gigabytes of notes and documents accumulated over the last thirty years as well as tons of notes in dozens of OneNote repositories. There's also lots of useful engineering tools in Excel, VBA, VB, C, C++, Python, even Forth, LISP and APL. At some point I'd like to share a good deal of it. Just not sure how to start this on the right path.

I use it myself daily to receive a chronological feed aggregating notifications from GitHub and Gerrit. I’m pretty happy to rely on that and not need to receive notifications via email or by visiting multiple web UIs.
It also hosts my newer (though also more rare) personal Go packages, serving them via a custom implementation of the module proxy protocol in addition to a git server, an issue tracker, and most recently a simple code review system (see https://dmitri.shuralyov.com/go/generated$changes/1). Supports logging in via the IndieAuth protocol—try entering your website's URL at https://dmitri.shuralyov.com/login.
Source code is at https://github.com/shurcooL/home, though some WIP changes aren’t there yet, and I should really move it to be hosted on my personal site for more dogfooding. One day.
I've been blogging and making videos on https://nickjanetakis.com/ for around 7 years now. I focus on topics related to building and deploying web apps, dev environments, git and lots of assorted things you may experience as a developer. I post something new at least once a week.
There's almost 400 posts. It's a static site generated with Jekyll.

Occasionally I add a technical blogpost, notes for later reference or a little tool. Recently I made an online tool to display the color output of web color text notations in code listings. https://tacosteemers.com/files-static/tools/color_values.htm...
I just added two fields of changing colors. CSS only. I find them nice to look at from time to time. The changes are not fast or flashing, but I don't know if these are safe to look at for everyone.

My site has gone through a lot of iterations but I'm currently trying to balance some cool, newer features with a relatively simple codebase.
It's currently using Hugo w/ Markdown but there's also a couple things like a live player powered by server sent events which is neat.
I also have a bunch of blog posts and other things.
A cool trick is doing some content introspection with Hugo such as what images are missing alt tags: https://utf9k.net/debug/alt-text-missing/

Simple, but I like the fact that no other website looks quite the same. I’d really like to implement optimized images for the blog at some point, maybe some lightboxes too, but for now this works great for me. And no JS, the best kind of JS.

My goals with my site were:
- a site that is the HOME of all of my work as my interests evolve over time as a creative technologist
- have it be fast
- have it be minimal for writing with markdown + react (mdx)
- have it be maximum in fun (if you are on desktop check out https://www.bramadams.dev/projects/akuma-no-ko or https://www.bramadams.dev/projects/kh if you are on mobile check out https://www.bramadams.dev/stories)
- self host images and videos (cloudflare images + stream)
- a running dev log (https://www.bramadams.dev/projects/dev-log)

I recently redid mine to use org-babel with org-publish. I'm pretty happy with how it came out, though it's still slightly under construction. Maybe a little too much going on to be called 'minimalist' though.
Any criticisms or suggestions appreciated!

I've been starting to write more about React and TypeScript. I've been slowly creating a guide to walk coworkers through the technologies.
It's generally a terrible idea to write your own website to do this instead of just using a blogging platform. It's been fun to deeply customize some things (iFrames for mini browsers showing React code), but writing the code to send out half decent emails has been a nightmare (https://github.com/ethanmick/ethanmick.com/blob/main/pages/e...). Anyways, any feedback is appreciated!

I just think it's funny to see the juxtaposition of new, hand-crafted, high quality CSS & JS sites next to... let's just say "minimalist aesthetic" sites.
And then there's mine, just a Jekyll template... Maybe I should learn some webdev.
https://www.andrewmao.net
Academic turned startup founder (https://twitter.com/mizzao/status/1505529213612609536), so the content that was once academic self-promotion doesn't really know what it should do.
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this site is the resume that I used to generate using CSS and Jekyll's build process (https://www.andrewmao.net/resume): when someone would ask me for a PDF I'd just do "save as PDF" in Chrome and twiddle the margins a bit. I got tired of using LaTeX.
(I say "used to" because as a founder the resume doesn't matter anymore)
https://www.marekdlugos.com/ There's a lot to improve there but I'd be curious to see what other people think. The goal was to give a good overview of who I am. The part with "what I do" is something I want to improve for sure.
https://n8henrie.com
Pretty simple Jekyll / GH Pages site whose layout and style survived its former Wordpress days. Intended to do more writing about medical topics, but is almost exclusively hobbyist-level tech stuff.
Have tried and failed to migrate to Hugo like 3 times now. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
https://arthurdouillard.com/deepcourse/
It's a deep learning course I built for my students around some kinds of "skill tree" like in video games.
PS: I know CSS can be a bit broken on some browsers, I don't care enough to fix that.

I enjoy writing about server-side Kotlin (and a bit about livestreaming). I've found the process of writing about side projects to be really helpful in getting perspective, after being buried in them for a while. Hope folks enjoy reading :)
https://meipouchou.com/
Static HTML/CSS/JS generated by custom python scripts. No tracking, though I guess the server gets IP addresses and HTTP headers.
I made it to host a web novel I wrote. I wanted to do it without JavaScript, but HTML and CSS weren't sufficient to generate responsive sidenotes that lined up with the text on desktop, and collapsed into popovers at smaller widths.
I wrote the novel in a traditional word processor, then wrote an App to convert each chapter to HTML. The app helped to format the notes and read the text using text-to-speech to help pace my proofreading. The python scripts then take the output of this app and insert headers/footers and generate RSS entries.
I've also started a blog section on the site. There's only one post there now, but I have a few ides for more posts I want to add.
https://reyan.co
Hand crafted html/scss and posts full of quite literally no meaningful content, just nice design. I’ve taken the time to make it reasonably responsive too so i’ll most likely take a break for the next couple years before adding animations or something.
http://gally.net/
I started this site in the late 1990s as a place to post personal projects—music, photographs, writing. I left it dormant for a long time, but last year, in a brief fit of energy, I redesigned it to make it display better on mobile devices.
Not long before I began the redesign, I read some advice on HN about keeping websites simple, so that’s what I tried to do with the page design and navigation. It’s all handcoded HTML with some simple CSS. The only JavaScript is short, handmade scripts in the headers of two of the photograph pages to randomize the photos that appear when the pages load.
Other than advertising some books I’ve written, I’ve never used this site for work. But just yesterday, I posted my CV to the About page—not to attract work, as I will be retiring soon, but as a record of my academic career.
https://sudcha.com
It's designed as a modern take on 20th century newspapers.
It took several over a dozen iterations spanning two months for me to settle on this one.
I realized much later that the recruiters don't really care about the portfolio, as much they do about the keywords in resume.
My blog is up at https://bool3max.win
As of right now most the articles I wrote are about fairly basic programming topics. I find that articulating explanations of certain concepts and cementing them in the form of a blog post gives me a very specific peace of mind.
http://pnathan.com
personal blog, etc. haven't really done much for a few years, I've been attending to work and family more.

it's my parents'website, but they don't have a hacker news account, so I'm sharing for them.
it's about butterflies, and their gardening journey. I made it for them and find it pretty wholesome.

I mostly use it as a place to write up my notes about whatever I was working on that day, with typical topics covering things such as embedded software, TrueNAS and Python.
One time I was searching online trying to solve a programming problem, when the 2nd result was a post by myself from 8 months earlier, in which I wrote about how to solve that exact problem!
Ideally I'd like my website to be useful to others too. In recent years I've received one email from an individual saying they found one of my notes helpful, which made my day. It makes me think I should drop a note of thanks next time I find someone else's personal website useful.
In future I plan to use my website to host the video games I made when I was younger. I've just put one up so far.
https://shalabh.com
It's a pelican based static site. More details of the tech used is here: https://shalabh.com/pages/site-tech.html
Even though this site has been responsible for some of my biggest clients, I don't actually write about tech that much. Instead I just share my thoughts on certain things that interest me.

My personal blog, with some other stuff lying around. I've been neglecting it over the past year or so. It's a Hugo-powered static site, though I started off using Ghost.
My design philosophy, such as it is:
Have a unique look without being too esoteric, and minimise cruft on content pages (https://davidyat.es/2019/05/05/site-redesign/)
Provide a pleasant reading experience
Use JavaScript sparingly and only for enhancements (example: https://davidyat.es/2020/12/31/footnote-previews/)

Have not updated the projects page in a while! It also lacks responsive design on mobile. It's all written from scratch in html, css, and js, by me and my fianceé :) I plan to update it, especially now
Some of these are really amazing. Here’s mine: https://www.ovao.dev

Rather than bang on about my JS canvas library's site, I'll post a link to my personal poetry website - https://rikverse2020.rikweb.org.uk/
My aims for the site were: 1. Put the poems first (I hate poet sites that are all about the poet and only link to a handful of poems); 2. Get rid of the backend database; and 3. Make it easy to find poems using a bespoke tagging system.
I blogged about my experiences building the new site in a series of posts starting here: https://blog.rikworks.co.uk/2020/02/01/Recoding-the-RikVerse...

The design is several years old. I guess I should spend some time on re-designing it. On the other hand, it is not really useful and has only few visits by people who search for my name on Google.
I have a blog[0] where I talk about whatever, usually tech related, but quite rarely. It uses my own blog engine[1] but since that's kind of a mess I just had the thought of remaking it, once again. It has very little JS and I'm quite proud of the syntax highlighting and comments (and thus Disqus tracking) being opt-in. Actually I'm more proud of the tech than the writing on the site. :D
It runs on Elixir and I write blog posts by editing Markdown files over SFTP and calling a certain function on the blog instance to reload the files.

Powered by Hugo, I don't update it regularly and unfortunately didn't had time to start blogging regularly.
Very easy theme and settings, using Netlify to do automatic deployment on git push
Made with Jekyll and hosted on Github + Netlify. All for free although it received tens of thousands of visits (especially on the YouTube analysis post) without a problem.
Mine is very simple: https://eduar.do But I really like its domain hack that matches my first name. It took me a long while and journey to get this domain, which was previously owned by another Eduardo.

https://dsebastien.net
I write about programming, bootstrapping, personal knowledge management, learning, personal organization, and productivity. I also publish a weekly newsletter.
I recreated my blog when I was exploring Next.js a while ago, but it's been around for years before that.
There's nothing fancy. I enjoy writing using Markdown + MDX and the freedom it gives me to build and integrate custom React components in my articles. I try to limit their use though as it makes it harder to cross-post articles.
The source code: https://github.com/dsebastien/website-dsebastien
https://repo.codegazer.io/
Basically a smorgasbord of articles I found online and things I actually wrote.
Mostly intended for personal consumption though, so I tend to intentionally break the site on a regular basis.
Everything here is written in Markdown / MDX. Hosting is done on cloud services (e.g. Google Drive, Dropbox, sometimes S3). All written in text editors, synced on the fly using either commands I built myself / the cloud service's desktop client.
No explicit build process before publishing, all markdown pages get converter on a per-request basis. That's why loading the page the first time could take a while.
Built mostly with Typescript, Next.js, Vercel, and Cloudflare.

Got the domain[1] in 2006 to have there my personal blog and some other stuff (including an RSS reader after the Google Reader tragedy that's still up and running). I used to use Wordpress but got tired of it and now I'm using Pelican to blog in my native tongue (Spanish) and a bit of English for technical stuff. I also maintain an XML file of shared stuff that can be read using RSS, a kind of micro-blogging without moving parts.
[1] I wanted to use "rincewind" as my nick on the local IRC network back in the day but, of course, it was taken. I thought "meh, a typo will do it". Many years later I still have it :-)

HN has motivated me to start writing stuff down and publish it. (thx ^^) I started about 16 months ago and it has been a great experience.
The site is based on MkDocs [1] with Material [2] theme built using GitHub actions (and various other services; see GitHub readme [3])
https://realmofchaos.xyz/
I've been experimenting with https://github.com/srid/emanote
My current project is https://neonarcade.games, a collection of silly casual games. 90% of the motivation to make these games is to have fun in the process, so the focus is on funny ideas and DX over UX and good game design. The canvas api is excellent for these kinds of projects, and you really don't need much more. Most games I make start as a single HTML file and a math.js, which I regularly start from scratch, and I often use emoji as a proxy for real sprites.
Though the focus is on making, I have been playing my own minesweeper clone almost every day. In some sense, that makes it my most successful side project to date.

Nothing special for mine[0], serves more as an online business card with some links. The domain contains my full name and I also have a very similar e-mail address (replace the first dot with @). It's just plain HTML with some JS to switch the hello message. Source is available and I have a job that gets triggered for every commit, deploying it to Gitlab Pages. I just update it directly on Gitlab[1] every time I need to and it's up.
My site is http://www.yuyaykuna6.com/. I am interested in the language Quecua, and programming. I am working on several projects. Theres two that I want to mention , one, is a message-board-like site Qhipu, like Reddit, but used the way Twitter is, for talking in threads, or as a database so you can store your data using the messageboard tree structure. The other one is an app, i call BuubleIM. Its an Instant Messenger written in ios Swift. It does basic 1-1 messaging right now, with ejabberd on the backend. If either of these 2 projects interests you hmu, i allow creative freedom.

My main website is a simple Bootstrap website and there's not much of interesting about it. But my blog has a cool system behind it.
https://blog.shish.cat/ or https://blog.shish.cat/basic
It proxies https://telegra.ph, Telegram's article publishing system, adding dark mode and removing js (and other things on the basic version), the homepage is just an article itself. Hosted in a cloudflare worker. Let me know if anyone is interested in the source code.

I recently gave it an overhaul to turn it into more of a "digital garden" which I go into a little here https://writing.martin-brennan.com/renewal/. I write fiction, so I want more of a place where I can store backstory about my worlds and characters as well as having a regular blog. I am pretty happy with it, but I need to fill it out more, there are a lot of page stubs that are crying out to be filled with worldbuilding.
https://blog.ctis.me/
This blog is statically generated by Hugo. It’s compiled and hosted by Cloudflare Pages, using GitHub for version control. Image files and other large assets are stored in BackBlaze B2 and served via Cloudflare.
I originally built it atop a functional Werc installation, but ultimately decided I would prefer static sites to running a server. Luckily, I stumbled across a port of the base Werc template and styles into Hugo’s templating system. From this I was able to port my own revisions and achieve a pleasing result, combining Werc’s aesthetic simplicity with my desire for a static site.
https://mxuribe.com
There's my personal site. I used to host some blog posts/content, but removed most of them and in earnest stopped posting around 2017...Nowadays really i only keep this around as a sort of page about me. So when people ask me the different ways to contact me, instead of giving them a list of usernames on social media, email address, etc...i just tell them to go to mxuribe.com - which shows the places where i live online, and how to reach me. I would call the site minimal/basic...but really because i lack the energy/desire to enhance the design of the site.
https://www.mahnamahna.net/
Originally built as a blosxom-powered blog in 2003, the site grew with a motley collection of perl and php scripts, as sites did back then. Then as social media came to prominence, I drifted away from my own site, as so many others did.
I spent much of the early pandemic rebuilding from the ground up with Django and Wagtail. Migrated the old content without breaking old links. Added some front-end niceties without breaking anything for non-JS visitors. Recently reached feature parity with the original site. Now I just need to figure out what I want to blog about. :)
https://siliconvict.com
I was a homeless, convicted felon turned financially independent retired early via Silicon Valley. I mostly write about goofy business lessons and my failures.
https://danverbraganza.com/
It's my personal landing page, hosts some articles and some toy webapps I've built:
https://danverbraganza.com/tools/meeting-cost-clock?/ and
https://danverbraganza.com/tools/kickboxing-combo-trainer?/
The design is based on my favourite sports coat which happened to be lying on the bed while I was editing the CSS!
https://adambennett.dev/
Mostly Android + Kotlin with a recent foray into interviewing, and I'd like to write about leadership/culture a bit more. I've gotten out of the habit of writing recently due to burnout but I'm starting to feel that motivation again.
It's a Hugo static site ontop of Firebase Hosting, and I just commit to GitHub and Actions builds and deploys the site for me. I recently started using http://forestry.io/ which is a nice GUI over the top for content management.
The Secret City create treasure hunt-style urban adventures through cities across the UK and internationally.
We spend a lot of time creating write ups for the great places we find during our research stages, e.g. for London - https://thesecret.city/things-to-do/united-kingdom/england/l...
If anyone has a passion for creating narrative based stories/games and discovering interesting things around them then please get in touch :)
https://eternityforest.com/doku/doku.php?id=start
It's just a basic DokuWiki with some plugins.
Pretty random. Projects I'm working on, unpopular opinions about software, some poetry and fiction, and a few articles on random things, like my attempt to figure out where phrases like "He thrusts his fists against the posts" came from, and whether someone blew up a train by sitting on the valve.
(And if anyone has any tips on whether "Diarrhea of the mouth" was originally popularized in France, I'd love to hear about it for my next one!)
This is amazing to see.
Thoughts on doing this on a monthly basis like we do for Who's Hiring and Who Wants to Be Hired? (Or yearly, if monthly is too much?)
Bonus points if someone wants to create some sort of aggregator site / search engine that uses the data.
https://www.neilvandyke.org/
It's the same look for a couple decades. Used to be HTML tables, currently responsive CSS (see the 3 simple width modes).
Generated by an ancient Emacs Lisp program.
The late '90s version kludged a color-coded two-level tab site-wide navigation scheme out of `table` elements, no images. The only remaining example (with tab text removed) is: https://www.neilvandyke.org/lab-linux-1999/
https://zalberico.com/
I have a couple posts that I wrote when I felt like I had something to say. I link the serfs and zoom one here pretty frequently in comments when I think the arguments are relevant. How to Become a Hacker made it to #1 on HN which was exciting (none of the others got any real attention)
I really like having an about page because I can link to things I like: https://zalberico.com/about/
Plus it's fun to have a place of your own online and it was fun to make a super simple UI.
https://deepermm.com/
A send-up of the quant/trading world, of which I have been part of on-and-off for years. Also the start-up world/crypto/AI/etc.
https://www.harrydehal.com
Simple website to showcase my recent projects (screenplays, photography, film, web), built using Next.js, static site hosted on Cloudflare Pages.
https://www.nxn.se/
Mostly a blog about data analysis in a niche field of biology.
In the very beginning it was a static website built in Hyde. Then after learning I could use MathJax in Tumblr I converted it to a Tumblr site with a custom URL.
Eventually after getting frustrated with squeezing things into Tumblr I got a Squarespace account and converted all the content to that.
Mostly I'm happy with Squarespace, though it involves a lot of manual typesetting to work around various unclear escaping that happens in the Markdown parsing. Still better than the hassle of hosting something custom for me.
https://petermolnar.net
Runs on a former thin client under a cabinet. Static HTML made with python, pandoc, and exiftool, with a dash of PHP for error and redirect handling.
https://andarazoroflove.org Nothing fancy, hosted on Github Pages, but I've had the domain since the early 2000's and refuse to let go of it.
https://www.shawnmatthewcrawford.com/ Still in progress blog about my life and growth. Also, random thoughts. Well, it’ll likely be mostly random art and music. Claymation and such coming soon. Built with Pelican(Java based static site generator) and the Papyrus theme hosted on GitHub and deployed through Netlify. My only real technical achievement so far is the main picture changing to a darkened version based on the users dark-mode preference in their system preferences. Some of these submissions are amazing!
https://MatthiasPortzel.com (or gemini://MatthiasPortzel.com)
I'm not terribly happy with the content there currently. I wanted a personal website, and I think it does a decent job in terms of not looking bad and being simple. But I realized that trying to design a personal site is difficult because you're trying to design a website to fit what you've already done. There are a lot of things that didn't make it on my site or not in the ways I want, just because they don't fit nicely in the current sitemap.
https://4till2.com
This is my personal site to display waypoints, photos, logs, notes, and stats on my upcoming Pacific Crest Trail thru hike. Automatic and in real time.
https://goodvibes.me/
I help good people doing good work make great impact. This is how I make a living and how I make a giving. If you need my services, I would be honored to help. I work with everyone on a case-to-case basis, I don't believe in one-size-fits-all.
I don't talk about myself here because this is about going beyond 'self'.
However, the long term vision is to build a company like Berkshire Hathaway that comprises of my personal creative projects, my global projects for human progress, and any other assets I own/acquire.
https://oisinmoran.com
As always, it needs more content (working on a new piece now, and some fun ones in the pipeline), but pretty happy with the eclectic enough mix I've got up there so far. Would love feedback if anyone finds any of it interesting!
The styling is a super simple (originally copied then iterated on http://bettermotherfuckingwebsite.com/ or one of that series), and I try to keep it that way.
It's hosted on GitHub pages which I would recommend!
https://bellebcooper.com/
I recently rewrote my site in Python as a learning exercise. It was a good first project to start dabbling in web development.
Here are mine:
blog: https://www.davidwparker.com/
portfolio: https://www.codenameparker.com/
app for my Youtube videos: https://www.programmingtil.com/
fun podcast site: https://www.listenaddict.com/
All are made with Svelte (SvelteKit for the first three and Sapper for ListenAddict). Rails API backend. PostgreSQL.
https://explog.in -- a few posts over the past decade. I've tried to keep it fairly simple and straightforward.
Generated with emacs running in a Github action (https://explog.in/config.html); comes with a slipbox (https://explog.in/slipbox/index.html) that I fill in using LogSeq and export to a flat website using emacs again.
Here’s my personal site: https://andrewzah.com/
It’s statically compiled with Hugo. I switched from Zola due to lack of asciidoctor support. My focus is on minimalism, loading fast, and utilizing semantic html design for accessibility.
The sad thing is I’ve spent dozens more hours working on the code for this site than actually writing articles. (Counting the various migrations from Zola, etc).
I have some drafts for articles and a lot of technical stuff to discuss but I just have zero motivation to write these days. I’d rather practice guitar.
https://chimbosonic.com Simple CV site. Nothing fancy just what I needed to share info about me and a place for me to publish my CV. Recently started adding some of my projects I've been playing with. Another website I own is https://spiderfarmer.raphael.digital/ an music album website I built for my brother.
My day to day work is backend focused so it was interesting to try some frontend and design stuff.
https://qubyte.codes
I blog about things which interest me (mostly JS and creative code related), but also take Japanese language notes as I learn. Also part of the 250KB club!
It's built with my own hand-rolled static site generator, and I'm pretty proud of it's capabilities now. I've got a bunch of indieweb features integrated into it. I have no sense of style though!
Web2: https://lekevicius.com
Web3: http://jonas.eth (loads in Opera and Brave, from IPFS)

Online version of a strategy board game I made. Some other stuff on the site too.
https://www.miscbeef.com/birdcrab/quick <- Rules
The tl;dr is you have hexagonal pieces with numbers for combat and speed each direction. You decide how they want to be placed, moved, and rotated. Then turns are executed at the same time. Combat happens automatically when opposing pieces touch.
https://leoncvlt.com/
Nothing special, it's basically a host for my (not exactly up to date) resume, a couple projects, and my github.
I do, however, take pride in its pleasant minimalism and the fact that it's blazing fast - mostly out of being html-only, with all "pages" actually embedded in a single file - it was generated from a single markdown file using https://github.com/leoncvlt/imml
https://fredwu.me/
I've gone through a few "redesigns" over the past decade or so. For the latest design I've tried to keep it relatively simple, but also with a bit of design flair so it doesn't look boring. :)
I blogged about my latest redesign effort here: https://fredwu.me/blog/2019-01-20-new-blog-with-new-design-a...
https://hw-ax.github.io/hw.ax/
https://hw.ax by tonight.
Currently Buggy, one single html file (tiddlywiki). Very unfinished and unexplained.
If you have a foss related non profit or project and want to try to raise funds/awareness by having a solo guy hike 300km across Portugal this July, leave a note and I’ll reach out. Forgot to add contact info to the site other than mastodon!
V.0.0.1, shame this didn’t pop up tomorrow when it is much edited and filled in.
https://gallant.dev/
A straightforward blog (static site generated by Nikola), but I had fun styling it to look kinda like an old CRT. I also loaded it up with IndieWeb goodness (webmentions, pingbacks), bridged the webmentions to Twitter (will add Mastodon at some point), and added comments via GitHub. All this is described here: https://gallant.dev/posts/a-blog-reborn/
https://www.justus.ws
Built with Eleventy, hosted on GitHub Pages. I’ve had more polished looking sites, but I’m having fun with it and trying not to take myself too seriously.
For dev, it gets rebuilt locally after every file change (Eleventy's file watching and live refresh is awesome). For prod, it gets built on GitHub by Actions after every push. That way I can make quick updates using GitHub's editor on-the-go if I need to.
I write about sysadmin/sewing/running/outdoors/whatever else interests me.
https://ahmet.im/ It's a blog with static HTML (Hugo) hosted on a Google Cloud Storage bucket (3 cents/mo) with a Cloudflare CDN for caching/TLS termination. I'm not good at frontend tech so it's just text with bootstrap.css.
I have posts in my blog dated as back as 2005. I migrated from my own DIY blog CMS in VBScript (classic ASP) –there was no WordPress back in the day– which I migrated to WordPress, and finally settled on static HTML compiled from Markdown.
https://defanor.uberspace.net/
And the setup (XSLT-based generation) -- https://git.uberspace.net/homepage/
It includes my musings on the initial topic (relatively minimalistic web design) too: https://defanor.uberspace.net/notes/web-design-checklist.xht...
https://3d.readyplayeremma.com/
A little multiplayer WebGL environment I made. WASD controls, plus click and drag to turn. Backend is Elixir/Phoenix. The little trivia game isn't synced between players though.
Works on mobile too, but touch controls are not as nice. Real-time reflection and refraction on some things in the scene too.
edit: If there is no one else there, you can just open another browser to be able to see the multiplayer working. Every player is a randomly colored drone orb thing.

Hurrah for personal home pages :) https://dominik.net/reviving-ye-olde-personal-home-page.html
Have written up my favorite books I've read each year for the past 6 years, most recent entry: https://dominik.net/favorite-books-read-in-2021.html

Built with Django + React SSR using https://www.reactivated.io
https://theoreticallygoodwithcomputers.com
I like to write about CS/Math, programming topics (mostly in Julia or Python), and language. In particular, I like to combine these when possible (see [1], which I am quite proud of).
Hoping to add a bit more content during an upcoming break.

I have a small personal website where I write mostly about self-hosting and homelab stuff, kubernetes and have a couple small tutorial series. It's nothing impressive and I've neglected it in the last half a year or so due to university taking up almost all of my time. Also thinking of opening a tidbits section where it's small things I learn instead of waiting to finish something I'm doing and then writing about it.
I have a basic blog at https://johnvantine.com. I've been blogging in one form or another since the late 90s. Life has changed a lot since then, but I still try to post a few times a year. I just wrote about my experience solo traveling in Iceland! https://johnvantine.com/solo-travel-in-iceland-fire-ice-soli...
If we're talking personal:
- I had https://shahinrostami.com which grew into a collection of notebooks, now it's not so personal...
- Recently booted up https://polyra.com, which I'm keeping a little more personal
For my projects, I have https://plotapi.com and https://plotpanel.com
I’m a designer who hates redoing my personal site, so I’ve had a relatively stable one at https://quinnkeast.com for years.
Wow.. So many great sites.
Mine are: https://www.davewasthere.com/ travel site I created after getting locked up in 1999 while travelling in Russia. I stopped updating in in 2014, and stopped travelling in 2019. No idea why ;)
And https://davebeer.com/ as just somewhere to write random shite, with no real theme.
Just good fun and neither have any real purpose other than a semi-public, but obscure diary.
https://kavitareader.com/
I've been working on this for just over a year now. Started it to learn .net and build myself a self-hosted reading server since the different software out there were pretty bare bones on had a UX I didn't personally like.
Really fun project that I've learned a ton on and so much more to do.
Source Code: https://github.com/Kareadita/Kavita
I made this long ago, before Dustin Brett published his and now it doesn't seem as impressive in comparison. I didn't invest heavily in this project though, it's hacky and it's over. https://desk.glitchy.website
I also have this as a way of showcasing some of my music in a futuristic style. Made with a react ui lib called "Arwes" https://glitchy.website
https://luciano.laratel.li :)
All-clojurescript with some macros at compile time to parse markdown into hiccup using my friend Kiran’s library CyberMonday. [0] This was a rewrite from my previous blog which was using a Hugo template with my modifications. I haven’t blogged in a while but have some LLVM stuff on there.
https://fuzzcrush.xyz
I write music reviews mostly, but there are a handful of blog posts in there.
Site is built on self-hosted WordPress with my own theme.
https://blog.darkmere.gen.nz/
My personal Blog is just a simple wordpress site. I do an quick review of audiobooks each month plus the odd other article.
https://blog.darkmere.gen.nz/2020/08/sidewalk-delivery-robot... - is an article I wrote about Sidewalk Delivery Robots
My project website: https://www.checkbot.io/
I was aiming for a simple and clean design, with fast loading. The whole homepage is 200KB transferred. Renders in about 0.7s on my desktop.
Main tricks: use SVG everywhere you can (the big screenshot is SVG) and consider inlining it, use minimal CSS and inline it, host fonts yourself, use CSS font swap, don't use JavaScript for content or at all if you can help it, minimise CSS/JS/HTML and use HTTP2.
https://www.danielecook.com mostly a technical blog. I added a photos section for fun which is my favorite part.
Sure why not. I made this blog when I stopped using social media, and have yet to post anything personal that is not vaguely cryptic.
https://srslyw.tf/hello-world/
It’s not as fancy as some of the others, but I used Ghost because anything else would probably have broken by now. (And I still managed to break it, as the text renders black if you’re not using dark mode)
https://njs.com.np I started writing about security but eventually started blogging in my own company’s resources/blog so there’s not much. After around a decade of plain simple site, I settled with Wordpress and also wrote about why I did that here. https://njs.com.np/uncategorized/why-wordpress/
https://sagar.se
I really wanted to use something static, lightweight, and simple, without sacrificing UI features offered by 3-column Wordpress themes. Managed to do that with Hugo. There is also a so-called Digital Garden generated with custom scripts from the Dendron note taking software.
Notes from the setup process are here: https://sagar.se/notes/hugo/
https://deadcomputersociety.com/
This is my website which contains projects, a small blog, and links to things I've created. It's a static site generated using Zola as well as a few other scripts. I've definitely put more time and effort into the custom theme it uses than I have the actual content on there, but I do have a number of posts in the works that I'll get around to publishing someday.
My personal site is https://spaulmark.github.io/ , and it serves as a showcase for the interactive web toys and tools I've made.
I also actively develop an online simulator of the reality show Big Brother at https://spaulmark.github.io/bb-bots/ . I've been working on it for about three years on and off.
https://kaszkowiak.org
Static website generated by Hugo. It's still Polish only though! I'll translate it one day :-)
This is my blog, mostly about programming. https://mitchum.blog/
I started it with three goals in mind: 1. Remember more of the things I learn about complex topics. 2. Improve my writing skills. 3. Learn about driving traffic to a website.
The most noteworthy and popular section are the game tutorials: https://github.com/mmaynar1/games
https://sebastiansastre.co/
I'm working in a [1] couple[2] of open source projects that I'm going to add to the dev story.

Static site, handcrafted HTML/CSS/JS. A late-90's look because I want to keep everything simple, portable, able to use locally, and I'm no expert in UI or CSS. https://www.billdietrich.me/YourPersonalWebSite.html?expanda...
https://smlavine.com
It's nothing much. I use the same webserver for my mail, personal git hosting, persistent irc. I also use it to host some static content, like videos, for friends and family.
I like web development as much as a caveman likes banging rocks together to make a fire: I just want it to work. I don't bother with some static site generator or whatever. It's just handwritten html and some googled css, served by nginx.

(V2 Coming soon - End of April 2022)
Real time collaboration CMS, super fast and 99.99999% uptime.
All pages are rendered when you publish the article and files are uploaded to s3 or cloudflare workers, so even if the CMS is down, your site is always up. Direct visits to the website never hit the server, just your public pre-rendered files.
Image optimisation and ability to publish pages without js.
Tech: next.js, sockets, typescript, Postgres, node.js, react.
My current little side project that was originally just a way to learn SolidJS is https://www.thebarterbee.com/
Not sure if it's going to go anywhere, but basically the idea is a place swap services. Something like.. "hey I'll teach you Javascript if you teach me Marketing"
Very open to feedback, ideas, design critiques, etc.
The tech stack is Solid JS on the frontend and Rust (Actix Web) and Postgres on the backend
https://finn.lesueur.nz/
Mostly a way for me to journal about hiking/tramping and about the books I read.
I registered https://honeypot.net/ almost 24 years ago. It was originally served off a Perl script on my Amiga, and evolved from one stack to another over the years. Now it’s generated by a script that does a “git pull; hugo; rsync” every five minutes. I add a new page in iA Writer on my iPad, use Working Copy to push it to my git repo, then wait a few minutes for it to show up on the web.
https://crabl.net/
I've been working on turning my personal website into something more "app-like" (in the same vein as Brian Lovin: https://brianlovin.com/writing/how-my-website-works) and earlier this year I settled on a design that I actually don't hate for a change ;)
I've always failed to actually have a personal site. I've one for my startup https://www.dahut.tech that I'm pretty proud of, it's slim and get 100 points on pagespeed.
However I've setup gemini://iveqy.com and actually started blogging. First I wasn't really sure if it's sane, but every blog entry gets over 100 reads and I often get comments on them. That makes it fun!
I know it's not fancy, but it has a 100 page score and it has day-mode and night-mode, automatically based on your OS setting, and it's fast and reliable. https://waltermichelin.com/
Page score https://pagespeed.web.dev/report?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwaltermic...

It's not quite mine (I share it with a friend), but it is our personal blog since we're anonymous. We write about scaling high-growth engineering and PM teams.
Tech stack is Jekyll with a minimalist theme that we liked (Hydeout). We've set up a continuous deployment pipeline via Gitlab. Sometimes, the engineer in me can't believe that we can have all of these things for free.

I write my pages as plain HTML documents. Pretty refreshing!
I have a blog post detailing the rationale: https://ig.emnace.org/articles/simplicity-of-web-page.html
But the gist of it is pretty much what you'd expect from the site alone: lightweight, semantically correct, minimal Web pages.
Mine is https://marclittlemore.com
I eventually settled on Eleventy as the site generator and it's hosted on Netlify. I'm an Engineering Manager so I write about intentional technical leadership, and interesting tech challenges.
Newsletter about tech leadership is here too - https://marclittlemore.com/newsletter
Not much to look at, mostly tech notes, some blog posts, and tests: https://www.bidon.ca/en
I'm in the process of migrating from Drupal to Hugo.
One challenge I have: I sometimes prefer to write in French, sometimes English, and managing a bilingual site is a bit of a pain. So in my new site I decided I'll mix everything together (which will probably annoy everyone, but hey, it's my site ;-)
https://aarontag.dev
It's very minimal from a style standpoint, with no images except the SVG "logo", and all static. But for all of it's not much I really like how it's turned out.
There's a blog too, although I don't post NEARLY enough
(I'm also currently looking for work, https://aarontag.dev/resume.html)

This a very simple personal website where I write about the various things I care about from time to time.
https://ultimatemachine.se
I share the projects I'm working and blog about my journey as an Indie Hacker.
A simple portfolio site but all made of 3D blocks that bounce around a lot.
Made while learning a-frame, which is awesome and worth trying out if you like making 3D web stuff really easily.
https://aframe.io/docs/1.3.0/introduction/developing-with-th...
https://www.lancesells.com No javascript, no static site generator, just plain HTML and CSS.
Seriously, GitHub is the personal site for me
https://github.com/karthikeshwar1
It's minimal, easy to manage and update.
I did try making my own site though: https://karthikeshwar1.github.io https://karthikeshwar1.github.io/lite
https://andrew.legal
Mostly templates for legal agreements at this point. Gets more traffic than you'd think.
https://shivamrana.me/
Haven't been able to spend time on this. I want to improve the following 2 things first:
- Travel page: have those hover on the map and see where all I have travelled.
- Landing page: I want to change the landing page to a portfolio page where I have a stackoverflow type developer timeline thing.
Sadly, I don't have much experience in web technologies, so not sure how to even start with these things.
https://kusha.me/
- Pre-rendered static files so you can view the site without JS (Front page "terminal" animation and possibly the contact page won't work)
- Blog backed by JSON/Markdown
- Built with Vue
- Hosted on GH pages/backed by Cloudflare

What I like the most is the Games page where I showcase my collection of board games with play statistics from BoardGameGeek.
Edit: to import games from BGG into Gatsby I wrote a source plugin which is open source https://github.com/TommasoAmici/gatsby-source-bgg
https://cprimozic.net/
Personal site and blog. Designed with the goal of being what I want people to see if they were to google me.
My favorite part is my portfolio: https://cprimozic.net/portfolio/
It contains descriptions + screenshots of my significant projects going back to when I first learned programming.

Logging trips and hikes over the years.
The main thing that is slightly different is that trip reports can be viewed in chronological order as opposed to reverse chronological order like most blogs are arranged.

Just wrote it from scratch in PHP without any libraries in college, and have just kept adding more and more ever since. It's hosted on NearlyFreeSpeech for like $5/month. I l got really frustrated with Apache setting it up, but now I feel like Apache with separate files for each page makes everything very modular and easy to add onto.
https://rolandog.com
I had taken it down, but — as I'm learning everything Emacs — I'm in the middle of recreating it with project.el and org-mode... comments be damned... So, there's very little of value at the moment.
However, I've been thinking about inviting people to add annotations with https://hypothes.is
https://iyer.ai
Over the past 17 years I've moved from self developed blogging systems, blogspot, self hosted Wordpress now onto JAM stack deployed on cloudflare. I used to develop and write about Age of Empires and Age of Mythology Modding but more recently: I write about distributed systems, large scale software design and some machine learning and data-structures/algorithms.
https://www.matthewhoelter.com
Built with Jekyll and a custom theme. I use Two.js for the confetti.
https://l3m.in is my personal website (in french). Runs a """custom""" blog & projects list on an old Dell Optiplex fx160 next to my box, on my home.
Even if my home connection is still ADSL it should load fast since I optimized a lot of things (webp, no js, cache, fonts with only the chars I need for the titles...). It uses apache, php & mariadb.

Intended to make this to start blogging... didn't happen but still had some fun making the site
https://www.owenyoung.com/en/
I've used Zola to build both Chinese and English versions of my personal website, and one of my favorite parts is that I show the word count of the articles I've written so far in the header.
No Javascript, with a simple CSS file.
https://experiencednovice.dev/blog/
A simple blog for me to document some infrequent tasks. Built using WagtailCMS. Eventually I'll add a nice landing page with more about me. I have a few new blog post ideas that are in progress but writing doesn't come natural to me yet so it's a process to keep pushing forward with it.
https://transitivebullsh.it
It's powered by Notion as a CMS, react-notion-x, Next.js, and Vercel.
I published an open source starter kit so anyone can easily create similar sites: https://github.com/transitive-bullshit/nextjs-notion-starter...
https://www.maxlaumeister.com/
My personal site has programming, music, blog articles, fiction and more. It has an achievement system, a guestbook, a retro games section, and a ton of little knickknacks and easter eggs I've added over the years! I recently drew and added a mascot, the bird-fox. The whole site is based on a custom Jekyll theme.
https://padiracinnovation.org/News/
When I retired 8 years ago, I decided to keep some online presence, possibly about biology. The name of this site stems the state of our bank account when we were young, my wife and me: It was always empty, like the French chasm in Padirac.
Life events steered this blog in the field of neurodegenerative diseases.
https://abhaynayar.com/
I wrote my website from scratch and it has gone over many many many incremental changes over the years. It seems like I'm not gonna change it much in the future because has reached the perfect balance between being bare and modern at the same time. Also because I don't feel the urge to make any changes like I used to.
I have two:
https://blmayer.dev https://saucecode.bar
The first runs on my RPi on my living room, it is more about me and my portfolio.
The second one is a blog, currently runs on GCP, but I'll put it on my RPi briefly.
I tried to make the minimalistic without losing style. So they look like a terminal and a very old computer respectively.
I make tech and ethics related posts at http://www.CircuitBored.Com as often as possible, and often share them here...
I also run a very original music record label at http://www.RuffAndTuffRecordings.Com
Way too busy maintaining and updating it all, but it's honest work, no ads. :P
https://daqhris.com
My home on the Internet. I actually don't have my own place in real life. This website fulfills a deep desire of ownership. So, I built it (from a fork on GitHub) as minimal and as light as I can for less maintenance. Serves also as the place to aggregate all my online presence, to list some software projects and to host a detailed CV.
https://relaxdiego.com/
Just recently (finally) added functionality that auto-tests the code snippets in my articles. I talked about it in this article: https://relaxdiego.com/2022/02/autotest-code-snippets.html
https://chanux.me/blog
I have a lot I should add here: https://notes.chanux.me/
I have been documenting the same stuff over and over in the private knowledge base type sites I set up in the companies I worked in. Figured I'd much rather put the generic ones in the public.
My blog isn't all that amazing visually, but I'll use this to recommend fast pages. If you know a bit of coding and your goal is to write and not tinker, it's the perfect tool.
My personal site is https://siddhantpyasi.com/
It's a static site on Github Pages. The theme is WordPress 2020. Back in the day I was working a really boring job so I spent a fair bit of time writing a newsletter about nothing which I've shoehorned into the "Blog" section, makes the blog section a lot more presentable too.
https://wrongsideofmemphis.com/
I talk mostly about Python and other dev topics…
Mine's https://cramer.tech It's mostly for publishing my photography for friends since I don't use social media apart from HN. I plan to populate it with lots more content soon, photography as well as writing. Built on GitHub Pages and Jekyll from the Student Pro Pack, might build something from scratch once that runs out.
https://tuckersiemens.com
I try to keep it simple, HTML, Sass (but really just vanilla CSS), and no JS. I generate the site with Zola (https://www.getzola.org/), which has been fantastic. Nothing fancy here, probably write a post once a year, but I have fun doing so.
My personal blog ^1 using the Jekyll engine with a custom theme I made ^2. All hosted on GitHub and secured with Cloudflare. Simple publishing workflow and zero hosting costs.

Not much hear yet, just a bit about me and some stuff I've done.
Am thinking about doing a weekly updates on a project to force me to actually do something, but not committing to that yet :P

Don't have a website? Wanna learn FreeBSD? Do both here!
https://nowrestlingonisland.com/
Lovingly hand-coded HTML, no JS, lightweight, just a place to post my humorous short stories (warning: immature humour and sort-of adult themes). Just a github pages site that I manually edit and push, but perfectly suits my simple needs. Also has a couple of “easter eggs” that I found amusing.
I have a personal blog at https://www.brosstribe.com where I blog about stuff I've done, so I can find it later and remember it.
I also run a little BBQ cheet sheet app, at https://www.time2temp.com where I welcome pull requests for more times and Temps for BBQ.
https://chrissardegna.com
I spend so much time in a shell, I wanted my website to reflect that. Main pages use augmented-ui [0] and concrete.css [1].
https://www.realtorstats.org
Organizes data from real estate sales to help find an agent that will maximize your selling price. Eg, who will beat the Zestimate in Echo Park? I started it to help me find an agent to sell my house in LA and then decided to expand it across Los Angeles area neighbourhoods.
Also got me using Next JS, and deploying on Vercel.
Very interesting thread! Will probably come back from time to time and browse random sites. It's amazing to see that in this era of IG and Tik Tok people still care about the web. I am actually hoping for a revival of blogs and RSS. The /now movement is also something I like: nownownow.com
Here is my site, for the reference: https://ibz.me
https://jeaye.com/ - Pretty minimal site and a blog I so often think about getting back to, but there's always some other priority.
Using Github Pages with jekyll for both the site and the blog. I use some custom jekyll plugins, so I build locally and then just push the generated site, rather than having Pages do the jekyll work.
https://aaroneiche.com My various misadventures, over the last decade it’s largely been various personal projects.
(Edit) It’s a Wordpress install. I’ve spent a fair bit of time contemplating a move to a static site generator. I know it’s an unpopular opinion, but I really like Wordpress. I find the editor is easy and it gets out of my way.

You can serendipitously discover and search for old books and resources, listen to old out of copyright music and radio, and talk to a robotherapist, too: https://www.locserendipity.com/Rogerian.html

This has been my ongoing Covid project--I always buy used electronics online, and it's a pain to cross-reference specs and such. So, I was inspired to make a parametric filter/search in the style of digi-key or Mouser, but for computers being listed on eBay (laptops for now, but big update coming eventually).
https://learnbyexample.github.io/
I'm using Zola SSG (https://github.com/getzola/zola) and hosted on GitHub Pages. I write about Regular Expressions, CLI one-liners, Scripting Languages, Vim, self-publishing, etc.
https://www.robcohen.dev/ - It's at least a bit pretty.
recently ported old blog to github pages using nextjs ssg, plus has an rss feed https://cmdcolin.github.io/ (post on how I made it https://cmdcolin.github.io/posts/2021-12-26-nextjs)
This is my interactive digital resumé website. https://thomaswelter.nl
https://leclan.ch
Simple and to the point. It looks almost the same as my actual business card.
http://lalo.li/ short message service (only works on desktop, its old)
http://lalo.li/lsd/ and http://lalo.li/ddd/ some games work pretty well on mobile
https://karmanyaah.malhotra.cc/
Built with Jekyll, most content is in Markdown. It uses the standard Jekyll theme Hydeout.
It's hosted on IPFS with my self-hosted IPFS gateway serving HTTP. The home page is <15kb
Comments are powered by Matrix using https://cactus.chat
My website mostly for my plotter art!
It used to be fun and interactive. Though, I recently started redesigning it to be more professional looking so pretty empty rn.
There are some tools I built which are not visible like timezone
https://arne.me
The color scheme is derived from the current commit sha. It's built using Zola [0] and Nix. See GitHub [1].
My 12+ years old website: http://www.stargrave.org/ Currently it is built as a Texinfo document. Previously I used reStructuted Text (Sphinx), Vimwiki, Gopher-compatible Perl scripts, FTP-viewable READMEs and static HTMLs. Contains much more data than even social networks will ask from people.
I'm at https://maxleiter.com, built with next.js for server-side generation but with javascript removed in the final bundle so it comes in at ~13KB cold cache. At risk of being mocked for my definition of minimalism, I tried to keep it fairly minimalist and simple while having a modern web aesthetic.
https://xpz-wiki.uk.to/ This is a wiki/encyclopedia type of site for the X-Piratez mod for OpenXcom. The game has many thousands of items and tech to research. And it is hard to understand which tech is required for another. At some point I will build a tree of requirements feature.
https://evilcookie.de/
As a low-level developer, I love to read man-pages and thus thought about making a "content-first", plain-text site. I also get distracted really fast and thought this would be the best way to get rid of all the noise and just show things as pure and down-boiled as they are.
https://handbook.id/
I want to document "what works/what doesn't" for my life. Basically, if I start my life from scratch, what would I do the same/differently?
Since I'm a software engineer, I think of it like "project template".
Of course since I'm also a procrastinator, I haven't written much.
https://charlieharrington.com
I write about old Apple computers and also other stuff I like. I’m also doing a writing challenge this year, one new short story for every week, inspired by a quote from Ray Bradbury:
I'm building https://theprojectmanagement.expert I'm seeking to shorten the timeframe that it takes for someone to get from the level of an Expert after they are certified. The site would also be useful for non project managers, as it provides bite sized chunks of information.
https://kennethfriedman.org
Handwritten HTML and CSS (no JS required). I've been working on my personal site in fits and starts since 2013, so it's by far the longest thing I've ever worked on.
I'm pretty happy with it (but would love feedback & suggestions!)
https://egorfine.com/en/
Also my photo site: https://egorfine.com/photo/ with some pictures of the insides of Mriya, of the Baikonur cosmodrome, lots of Chernobyl pics from various years and others.
https://xavd.id/
It's basically just text and images, but I'm proud that I did the whole thing (content, design, implementation) and the overall attention to small details.
Also, I love the domain. @xavdid is my username on basically everything that isn't an account I've had for a very long time (eg this one).
https://webcamplus.app has been my pet project for the past two years. It's a webcam app for iOS/macOS. The site itself is just a simple static HTML page hosted on GitHub Pages. The app download image is hosted within a GitHub release. Some basic CSS to handle dark mode, just for fun :)
https://pedro.cab
My personal website that I made using WordPress where I record absolutely everything I do/watch/read in my life (sleep, exercises, movies, beers, books, places I've visited, tv shows, etc...) since 2015. Unfortunately in portuguese, but it has some really cool charts using chart.js. :)
I used to use my blog for photography, but these days it's mostly just occasional thoughts and the picture part is largely unused or something meant to illustrate the article and not one of my photos, but the design still revolves around each post having an image:
https://www.damninteresting.com : This is my outlet for my love of writing non-fiction, my enjoyment of graphic design, and a playground for web design and development. It also gives me a chance to mentor younger writers. The site is going to turn 17 years old this September. Sheesh.
I have a couple of them that I generally share:
https://riftvalleysoftware.com
Nothing fancy. They are corporate sites (because they are for companies that I own), but they are really personal sites; especially Little Green Viper.
https://bryce.io
an homage to the countless hours spent playing with Legos as a kid :)
https://projects.brianmccrillis.com/
I wanted to have a site I could write and share small apps and projects with people, I actually use the summary tool a lot myself. Though pretty much nothing is "finished" here.
Built with Python Flask on Lambda using Zappa. Front end is BS5 and HTMX.
I have made this small tool which coverts simple text to full database script with foreign keys, there are some limitations thought, its main purpose is to shorten time spend on remembering syntax and creating database. Currently MSSQL , MySQL and PostgreSQL are supported.
http://www.chrislessard.co/
it’s nothing more than a decorated version of http://bettermotherfuckingwebsite.com but it does the job and works on mobile without me needing to understand much about css.
Here is mine: https://pilabor.com/
And here is how I built it with hugo: https://pilabor.com/blog/2021/05/building-a-blog-with-hugo/
I don't have a personal site, but if I did it would point to the projects I'm working on. Right now the 2 it would point to are:
https://lxagi.com (natural language understanding for AGI)
https://nexusdev.tools (back-end powered Flutter apps)
https://karan.sh
Basically my extended academic CV. I generate the html from markdown with pandoc and use a css library that makes it look like Latex (https://github.com/vincentdoerig/latex-css).
https://www.peterlunch.com/ and I have a repo where I like to put awesome portfolios if you want to add yours https://github.com/pin0S/portfolios-that-pop
https://ounapuu.ee/
I've finally managed to stick with a disciplined blogging schedule and have managed to write a modest amount of them over the past 2 years.
It's also a one stop shop to references to the things I've archived.
Not the most lightweight page in the world, but it's good enough at the moment.
I put this together a few years ago as a dashboard to have some basic economic indicators available when I need them. It updates daily and I am an avid consumer of the information, but I haven't spent more than 2hr a year on it since I made it back in 2016.

After working and saving I drove right around Africa, through 35 countries over three years.
Now I’m tackling Australia
My personal website is https://narenkeshav.com/ and I've bootstraped my startup https://www.mani.ai/
Have focussed my energy & time to accomplish this. Let's see what the future holds for me.
https://echevarria.io
Started on it in undergrad to have a place of my own for photos and programming projects. I've slowly expanded it for the past few years. Heavily inspired by Tom MacWright's https://macwright.com

Will be shameless stealing ideas from all of your wonderful sites
https://quaxio.com/
My personal site, been around since the mid 90s. Lots of posts about programming, code golfing, math, etc.
For several years, I spent ~50h a month writing one (hopefully) high quality post. Haven’t been able to keep that commitment lately, so it’s more like a post a year at this point.
My personal website https://andykais.com. The "Art" link is probably my proudest page (https://andykais.com/moleskine). I'm not using any libraries to implement this effect
More of a landing page than anything, but... https://elliot.la
My main side-project site right now is Derw, a programming language like Elm but with Typescript interop. The homepage is https://derw-lang.github.io/, and there's a PR open to improve it but I'm not sure yet how far I want to stray from minimalism.
https://davidkunnen.com my personal site
https://stockevents.app my main project
https://minimalanalytics.com something I made some time ago that people liked
https://mikemcquaid.com
Various articles I’ve written and talks I’ve done over the years working as a software engineer or at university.
The skyline in the header is always a view from my current house.
This site has lasted in some form across my name change, self-hosting in my university flag to Wordpress to GitHub Pages.
https://calebmakela.com
It's nothing fancy, the site in itself is a personal project spawned from wanted to write more and have a presence.
It's built with Hugo and some gross hand-spun CSS. Though, after seeing some of these other amazing personal sites, I think it might be time for a refresh...
https://jeremyshaw.co.nz and https://blog.jeremyshaw.co.nz
Just a relatively inexperienced web developer documenting my progress of learning. Great to see such interesting personal sites from everywhere here
https://json4u.com/en
All in one JSON tools for your need, including JSON diff, format, escape and so on. Because I can't find an online tool which meets all my requirements (eg. char-by-char compares, int64 support, sync scroll), so I built it by myself with Astro + Vue3.
https://lauriegriffiths.github.io/micro-mysteries/
Very short mystery stories that you have to work out yourself. I try to keep it as simple as possible. Originally it was html only but now I use a static site builder and 5 lines of CSS.
https://foon.uk/
Very bare-bones right now, just some Javascript (and, earlier, Flash) games I've made over the years.
It's all static, which is nice to manage, but I do miss some of the interactive things (comments, polls, etc) I was able to easily knock up back when I had it all in PHP.
https://thomashunter.name
I'm a prolific blogger, wouldn't be surprised if I have the most posts on here. Mostly Node.js and JavaScript.
I host things like side projects, all of my presentations, and my resume on it. When I publish a new book I update the pages to link to it for marketing.
Here’s mine. I haven’t updated in a while. Built on Next.
https://dcaulfield.com
I took a look of inspiration from a couple of other sites I saw around. I wanted it to be simple and straight to the point. I know nobody reads it, but it's just a place for me to write my thoughts and hopefully use it as a reference for future employment.
A bit late to the party, but here is my site/blog:
A Jekyll site, hosted on DigitalOcean, and tested it on w3m and firefox. I mainly write about Software Engineering / Infrastructure.
I'm currently in the process of revamping it, partially because I'm looking for a new job.
It's been half-working, half-broken for months at this point, and I haven't picked a project to wrangle into the spotlight on the home page.
Thanks for reminding me to plug away at it some more :) Not a frontend person at all so this is a labor of love
https://piyushrb.ml/ I haven't spent a dime in creating or hosting the site. It's not as fancy as everyone else's, but it does the job, I guess. It's a fun side project from my college days. Free domain, Free template, Free hosting.
https://achris.me
I'm working to improve it every week but already happy with it, I've built my own blog system with NextJS and the code is public at
https://www.nexle.dk/
- have had the domain since like 99 or 2000 or so, and have used it for different purposes but for the last many years it's just been a collection of things I read and like (it automatically pulls from Instapaper the articles I've liked).
https://www.forrestthewoods.com/blog/
Artisinally hand crafted HTML, CSS, and JS. No templates or frameworks or static generators.
Mostly focused on my blog content. Which is mostly game dev related. Has a portfolio section from the last time I went job hunting.
Literally just finished the first draft of my personal website last night: https://www.spencerharston.com/
Pretty empty right now, hopefully I'll get it filled with stuff. Just wanted to claim my name's domain name and have a little something there.
Mine is https://gavinhoward.com/ . Built with an SSG. Browsable with no JavaScript. (JS is used for things like hiding Tables of Content, or matching podcast sound with a transcript, etc.) I use compression to make every page as small as possible.
https://manuelmoreale.com
First time I have a site I’m happy with.
https://www.jwilber.me/
I work on a machine learning team at Amazon, but my site includes mostly dataviz related stuff I enjoy creating, sometimes about statistics and ml (go figure), and sometimes other stuff (lots of articles on skateboarding, of all things).
Overdo for an update!
https://jake.nyc — mostly a blog, although I’m planning some more features with regard to music I create/listen to.
Tangentially related: https://jake.museum — a digital museum of every website I’ve ever made.
Lots of great blogs here!
Mine is https://vaghetti.dev. It's a pretty barebones Hugo blog hosted on Github pages.
I'm specially proud of https://vaghetti.dev/posts/wordle/.
https://jeffdoolittle.com
I write about leadership, complexity, and system design. I'm also one of the hosts of Software Engineering Radio at https://se-radio.net and a Systems Architect at Trimble.
https://james.brooks.page
I don't blog enough really, but it does serve as a nice mirror for my Laravel blog posts.
I also share what hardware and software I use at https://james.brooks.page/uses

Runs on Hugo hosted by Netlify. I want to make it more minimalist, I really like how clean and simple Jim Neilson's is for example https://blog.jim-nielsen.com/
https://tompollak.me/ Nothing special about it, just to (hopefully) land an internship

I'm not a programmer (actually a business strategist) - but I tend to have lot of fun coding and designing things.
I primarily use to it share things with friends - like music across different soundcloud profiles, bandcamp releases, apps etc.
https://juliankrieger.dev
I built it using Preact and Next.js. Any subpage that does not need javascript doesn't load it. All in all, it only weighs around 200kb in its entirety. Most browsers will have my scripts cached, so reloading the page nets 5kb transferred.
https://www.clayson.io
I built it back when I was doing my last job hunt, as I figured I ought to have some sort of presence, and I wanted to do something simple and clean. I keep intending to go back and use some css to remove the limited amount of javascript on the site.
Shares similarities with a few sites out there, but mines at https://rajatkulkarni.dev/

I’m using a hodge-podge of js cobbled together for static site generation. Wasn’t quite satisfied with SSG options at the time https://github.com/jcpst/jcpst
I recently started a blog about learning game development from scratch: https://dudezord.github.io/
I'll make one game a month, while trying to focus on learning the several disciplines required to properly make a game (art, modelling, audio, etc.)
https://langsoul.com
My personal blog, where I blog about anything I find interesting, with link to my podcast, The Language of My Soul. Made in Laravel with Stamatic as the CMS.
Tried to keep it minimal as possible, no shitty popups or stuff covering the screen. Just the content itself.
https://hardestclimbs.com
I could not find a good source for the hardest stuff in bouldering and sport climbing, so I made this one. Collecting the data was/is the hardest part, but it's open source so if anybody wants to make a better website, go for it.
I used to have content, but now it's just a flashing green cursor:
However, there is still an "hidden" folder with web experiments: https://a-mo-pa.com/stuff/
https://rinum.com
If nothing else it's a record of my failures :)
http://www.ciroduran.com
Recently moved from Wordpress to static files generated from Jekyll. I'm really happy that it's still a fully bilingual site and it has preserved the links from Wordpress.
Basically an archive for stuff I've made, videogames, talks and music.

Very challenging project, been working on this almost a year now. Love the feeling of being unconfident in having required skillset before starting the project, and having the pleasure of gaining those skills along the road
https://sullivantm.com/
Mostly me writing about different machine learning ideas (and other topics) I'm exploring. It might be useful to others, but the primary reason is writing helps me understand things better and reveal which parts I don't.
I blog about Avatar The Last Airbender, using a (very simple) custom static site generator:

It is the most basic forum of a website, but so useful for sharing bao recipes with students and links with friends. Or the other way around. My emphasis was on designing something humble (as I was just starting my PhD program) and comfortable to read.

I use this site to write about my various technical interests, and hobby projects. Lately this has been reverse engineering vintage synthesisers. I've really been enjoying technical writing, and improving my writing skills since starting the blog.

Took some of the features I liked from Gwern (aggressive sidenoteing in pure css, some sort of link hover preview, started with Tufte-CSS as a base) and went with a color pallete that I thought was oddly charming.

It's a 3D multiplayer P2E adult game I am developing with a friend in my spare time. Think VRChat or Second Life mixed with play to earn and crypto. We got 3D models finished and are working on the game now (using unity webgl).

pretty much all text (except a javascript chording keyboard emulator)
was on google sites, but they were slow to do https so i moved it to github. a week later google sites announced they were doing https. i regret nothing.
https://edpe.nz
Made this for (and have not touched it since) my last job search.
Design-wise I'd like to dial back the animation and minimalism a bit, and bump the contrast. Also have been thinking about adding more written content like blog posts or technical whitepapers.
I host http://geekring.net/ which is a site for you to share your personal website and see other peoples personal websites.
My own personal website is http://dusted.dk/
https://dedouss.is
My personal blog.
Statically (and proudly) generated by Hakyll. Hosted on my personal AWS account, using Route53 + Cloudfront + s3. Source sits within a private GitHub repo of mine, along with some Actions workflow that compiles and pushes the build to s3.

Nothing much on website yet. Just put it together last week.
But the coolest part is - you can know how many readers are currently reading this article.
(Try opening same article in 2 browser windows)
http://fallingleavescabin.com
Its not a personal site, per se, but its my YouTube page for my family's little cabin videos and trail cams. Love making them and its the one consistent thing I do, other than walk my dog, that makes me happy.
http://rohitjha.com
Static site, bootstrap,aimed to be a snapshot
Ghost site, aimed at being a place to rant about stuff which is important or interesting enough to be shared wider.
https://kevincox.ca
Definitely minimal. The goal was to share content and contact info. JS is used, but not critical. Trackers exist, but aren't loaded if you set Do-Not-Track. (or if you have JS disabled, but that is just a static site limitation)
https://benhoyt.com/ - mainly a place to share my Go and Python technical writing and open source projects (also has my CV/resume). Basic GitHub Pages static website with custom template. Uses GoatCounter for analytics.
https://blog.erethon.com/
Hugo based blog with a custom theme https://github.com/Erethon/hugo-HackThePlanet-theme.
https://chiragsp.dev/ Built my personal site using Hugo framework. I document my journey of building 12 products in 2022(1 product each month) and also document technical problems that I face during my day-to-day job.
https://legitimatesounding.com/
crappy css, passable html, hasn't been updated in a while, but runs on a very old version of a home built hosting platform. very in need of updates.
it also hasn't had a hn "workout" recently.
I run a personal blog with a few topics of my own interest (some retro programming, some car stuff which actually gets the most traffic) at https://henlin.net. I built it on hexo with a modified theme from the hexo theme repository
Here's a little blog I've set up with Angular.
Sadly I haven't renewed the certificates yet, shame on me.
Also do anyone knows how to map example.com to www.example.com if your domain registrar does not support root aliases?
https://lukeseelenbinder.com
It's a one-pager, simple, and all text (and doesn't even have separate CSS / JS). (Good thing I don't have to use it as a marketing site to get new clients, because it'd likely fail!)
On my personal site, I've published my explorations (so far) on the future of personal computing, by way of designing an "operating system of the future."
The site is built in Svelte using Elder.js as an SSG.
https://fenivarughese.com/ Hand-crafted Hugo static site hosted on Github Pages.
https://galaiko.rocks
landing page doesn't have links, but the website contains some low quality blog posts that receive some traffic via google
it's a hugo website hosted on cloudflare pages. I've also made sure it looks ok without css and js
https://www.ivanmontilla.com
This is my personal blog, I claim is a tech blog, but it's mostly a career advice blog.
I went fancy and installed Grav on it instead of WordPress, I love the speed when it loads. I also use CloudFlare on top of it.
So many great personal sites - I am actually in the process of building the next version of mine and I couldn’t ask for better inspiration. Here is my current site: https://www.anders.co/
Hasn’t been updated in a while :-/
https://housekitty.app
I got frustrated with SF real estate and made an open bidding platform. It's meh because I can't really find an incentive for people to use it, but I got to learn Flutter so it was pretty fun building it!
I made https://jfornear.com with Jekyll and GitHub Pages. I haven’t updated it since 2019... I’ve been focused on building https://pinjour.com lately.
https://www.billhartzer.com My personal blog, I post whenever I feel there's something post-worthy. Lately it's been about stuff I'm passionate about that's related to what I do professionally.
Is this still open to sharing or is 13 days way long ago? I'll find out after posting the thing: https://www.andreidraganescu.info/ and getting downvoted for resurrecting threads.
https://intellectronica.net/ (mostly just aggregates stuff I post elsewhere, also some local posts). Hugo and a bunch of Python scripts for scrapping, GH actions and deploying to Azure Static Web Apps.

Built with: Gatsby (though I won't use it today) and Netlify CMS and deployed on Netlify
https://neuroky.me
It's a take-a-file, leave-a-file thing, running in my pantry. No file size limit or anything. Seems to be mostly pdfs - my favorite is the snail farming guide.
(If you think you can hack this, you absolutely can. Please don't.)
https://pavluk.org - mostly just a personal blog
the about section has the source code for the static site generator, but it really is nothing special, i just wrote it for fun and because i didn't feel like looking into existing ones
https://krishna2.com - my personal site with some essays but mostly I keep it to publish my reading list: https://krishna2.com/books
http://www.iblaine.com
* hosted on github
* Uses a Jekyll template
* minimal content, a few blog posts, projects, links to social media
I've always wanted to host a unix terminal as my personal site but every gadget, feature, piece of content is something that may need maintenance.
https://rutar.org
A site to host my research, and some miscellaneous blog posts. I also have a recipes site:
They're all made using Zola, "compiled" to HTML + CSS.
I've got my travel blog https://kevinandsam.travel that I made with Gatsby and my personal blog https://kevinhughes.ca using Jekyll.
https://renatello.com
My best decision was starting a personal blog more than 10 years ago.
It brought me new clients and friends.
Also https://tapvise.com/ is my side project. Still wip.
https://notzeb.com/
This used to be my personal academic website, but I'm no longer in academia so I recently had to figure out a new hosting solution. (Not much to see if you don't enjoy math or puzzle-solving.)
https://yashmehrotra.com
Its built on hugo and uses a theme I co-authored: https://github.com/526avijitgupta/gokarna
https://gabriellacroix.com
There's not much to see there. It's a Jekyll site with some customizations. I'm working on a custom rewrite to move away from Jekyll and make it easier to post most of my local notes.
Always happy to share, I'll subscribe to yours if it has RSS available.
Source code at https://github.com/kinduff/kinduff
https://waterfull.netlify.app/ this is a SSR/pwa I'm making. The purpose is to add and find water sources or taps. To help get free access to water to hikers, cyclists and travelers.

I've been doing DIY electronics, and wrote about some of the things I've built. It was the nicest feeling to see on social media other people's photos of their builds based on my project files!
My site has as weird of an information architecture as my life. And I’ve given up keeping a unified design, instead allowing each portion to express itself however is most appropriate. https://kerricklong.com
https://yannev.es
Nothing fancy but may relieve others who experience imposter syndrome from seeing some flagship dev personal sites!
Serves as a directory out to where my musings exist on the internet, and the travel map is embedded from NomadList.
https://jesperreiche.com/
Primarily use it for analog photography stuff. Always enjoyed reading good ol' photography blog posts, so that is primarily what I do. It exercises my writing, which is a good thing.
https://will.gleich.tech A resume website I made for my last job search. Need to do more blogging but a fun blog post about cheap homelab GCP Failover.
I've been meaning to do a post about solar powered ethereum miner.
https://wa.tson.dk
Static one page site built by hand. Nothing fancy, just a portfolio of sorts
https://johnzanussi.com/
A place for me to share the tinkering I’ve been doing in my free time.
Info on how I built it.
https://xn--wxa.bje.id.au/
It's mostly for project logs I can refer back to. I wanted a site that would load reasonably fast, but it's clearly not as aesthetically powerful as other sites posted here.
https://glenngillen.com/
I’ve gone through various platforms over the years. Currently it’s a Gatsby site deployed to S3+Cloudfront. With probably and overly complicated deployment pipeline to publish updates ;)
https://blog.jdboyd.net/
I started several posts in 2020/2021, but I failed to get any finished to actually post. I really need to get one of them done, or start a new one that I will actually get finished.

Mine is a Hugo-generated site with very little content -- eventually I'll migrate all the old content from my former WordPress-based site from years ago. My site can be seen at https://matecha.net :)
I'm a software engineer during the day, a comedy club organizer at night.
I'm probably best known as a writer (https://lmy.medium.com), though.
I made https://towardssoftware.com! It’s a Django app running Wagtail CMS, and since that’s all just Django I can hack on it super easily. Wagtail runs the part of the site with writing and tils.

https://betterlicenses.com
A website to help companies pay less for Microsoft 365 licenses, like a marketplace for licenses, which considering Microsoft increased last month the prices makes it quite useful.
https://quitesimple.org/
Powered by a wiki I wrote in C++ (long story), not much going there right now besides links to my projects. I added feeds recently as I plan to start blogging at some point.
https://vatsalparekh.com updated a few months ago using https://getpelican.com/
Haven't updated anything in years though

It's my bio landing page for career, networking, and speaking engagements, and I host the presentations from my talks on the site as a way to retain audiences
Wall of pizza: https://brynet.ca/wallofpizza.html
If you don't want to buy a stranger a pizza there's some other stuff on there too, I guess. All static content, OpenBSD httpd.
https://adi.onl, I use it to publish small UNIX tools. It's built using my sh static site generator http://mkws.sh/.

Kept mine simple. Made by hand!
I get a ton of action on my contact form, but mostly from people using Link Lock (one of my projects), or people who use my Cookie Clicker auto clicker bookmarklet.
https://thelastpointer.github.io/
I'm kinda proud how lean and lightweight it is. I'm not satisfied with the js galleries though, maybe I should just open images in a new tab.
https://imnotpete.com/
I used to run a couple blogs, but after 5+ years of not updating I replaced it with a basic calling card site. Just hard-coded HTML with a black-and-white Bootstrap on it.
https://thinkingthrough.substack.com/ My personal blog where I write about various aspects of software engineering, people management, and personal productivity.
https://www.elliotcsmith.com/
Writing mainly about AI and healthcare these days. Using ghost (hosted) after many years of picking a new platform every time I felt compelled to write more.
It's not much. I mainly created it for a small project that gained some traction a few years back. I plan on building a small portfolio soon and to start blogging.
https://matsimitsu.com
Started out a long time ago as a nanoc site and got converted to middleman and now sveltekit.
The blog is secondary to the trips section where I post about my past travels as a way to remember them.

Just my occasional ramblings. I've had many websites and blogs over the years, but I find myself no longer having the time or motivation to keep up with them.

Just a vanilla hugo static site hosted on github pages. I’m writing my own dynamic blog hosting backend thing for no reason in particular and plan on moving it over there once it’s ready.
https://www.taigi100.com/
I've been working on it on and off for a while. What I'm thrilled about is the fact that is has no JavaScript! It is very simple and has a small size!
https://cjlm.ca – currently sporting a newspaper-style layout inspired by http://www.breckyunits.com/

I wrote a custom small WebGL2 engine that powers all of the graphics, fully bypassing the DOM. All the math, raycasting, layouting and so on are custom implementation.
I recently started to write a cybersecurity newsletter that will come out at least twice a month.
It's written in a light tone so everyone can understand.
https://www.adamconrad.dev - I used to write more on programming when I was a developer. Now I write mostly on engineering management and how to become an engineering manager.
https://tpolito.com/ - I’m currently in the process of redoing this site again. But this is it for now. Nothing too fancy. Built with SvelteKit hosted in CloudFlare Pages.
https://yasha.solutions/
my tech musing and other random nerding. It was dead for a long time, somehow last 6 month got it revived a bit since I moved my workflow to emacs/hugo...
https://matthall.codes
I post every now and then on my projects. The site also serves as a "digital business card" etc. Statically generated by a NodeJS script I wrote, hosted on Vercel.
https://www.novocantico.org/
The only thing interesting about it is its implementation (it's self-hosting).
I've tried writing blog posts explaining it but it's difficult to explain.
https://lwgmnz.me/ Nothing fancy, but where I'm from coding/technical blogs are very kinda rare. I mainly talk about mobile development. Thank you for visiting.
https://www.kemendo.com
Basically just a personal storage space
Handcrafted HTML, CSS, JS on the smallest FreeBSD box on NFSN. I wanted to be able to fully post edit etc in my terminal and serve blindingly fast.
I had two design goals for my tiny personal page:
* Write the content in Markdown.
* Don't require any source files to update it.
https://samyaks.xyz/
I don't post much, but I really like how it turned out. It's not too fancy and probably violates a bunch of web dev best practices, but that's okay.
https://vlad.gg / https://vlad.lgbt
Hugo, automatic dark mode, and a few goodies on hover. Otherwise pretty light and standard.
Wow. What a great list. I really loved it.
Here my two (German) sites:
- https://schriftrolle.de (personal site)
- https://moorwald.com (freelance side-gig)
https://caley.dev/
Tried to build something that reflected my personality. Had the most fun with the contact page 'copied' popup.
Built from scratch with React-create-app and no other libraries
OK here goes...
No, it's not https - I can't be bothered.
Amiga/Gopher/Doctor Who/Terry Pratchett content. Written in bad PHP, with self cranked html/css/js.

This is mine, built using Sveltekit and TailwindCSS (I'm a hobbyist / amateur developer). No articles yet, have a few work-in-progress drafts offline
Still have to disable the scripts that Cloudflare injects into my HTML and convert my main image to an svg but I'm pretty satisfied with how it looks.

One of these days I’m going to finish a new post about the history of color in software and APIs.
In the meantime, my blog has exactly one article, an overview of video communications APIs today.
Here's mine. I'm open to criticism.
My goal is to make my website as minimalist and as usable as possible, while retaining some degree of "modernity".
https://devnull.land
I wasn't satisfied with Jekyll and other similar implementations, so I wrote my own in an afternoon with the actual posts made up of markdown stored in GitHub Gists.
https://adamtrimble.com
It's basically a resume, but I had fun doing the interactions and color theming. I was aiming for simplicity as much as possible while keeping people reading.

It's fundamentally a pointer to my other social presence and a list of "cool projects" (mostly side gigs) that I've done over the years.
A lot of great personal sites here. Mine is just a simple GitHub Pages site which I recently set up. It contains some of my hobby projects and CTF writeups.

My old portfolio (old because most links are dead now, but still use it)
If you're on desktop, you can enjoy the raymarched sphere with moving colors as you hover links.
https://adriel.co.nz/ is my personal site, made it a few years ago now.
Hosted on the free tier netlify, is all plain old html/css (only js for tracking and netlify stuff)

I post random stuff/tutorials.
Right now it's mostly Swift and iOS stuff but I plan to blog about other fun projects that I'm trying with Rust, Go and databases.

It might get buried under all of the other comments, but I write stuff occasionally on my website
Some of the articles are on HN and have gotten a pretty good reception.

You people are absolutely incredible. These are some amazing personal / hobby sites.
not sure if this is the right place but does someone how a easy tutorial on setting up a personal blog website for minimal costs? I bought a domain off namecheap half a year ago but have been struggling with setting up the site using hugo
Might as well post my own crappy blog while I check out everyone else’s: simonsays.so

I saw a colleague using ngrok, so challenged myself to build my own tunneling tool.
It's Typescript for both the client and server with websockets used for two way communication between both.

Nothing fancy, just an academic website with a short bio and some pubs. Source is in org-mode, which I compile to HTML and host via github pages.
I like blogging but I hated having to blog using markdown or via Wordpress’s horrible editor or some other blogging platform’s flow.
I was anyway playing around with building my own email inbox when I realized emails written in Gmail yield HTML which could be repurposed to post blogs.
I released an early version of this at https://moogle.cc around the same time Hey.com was launching Hey World built around the same idea.
Now, my inbox has evolved and so has the tooling for the blog. The newer product combining the inbox and blog is at https://pretzelbox.cc.

Going on ten years of blogging. This is one consistent habit that continues to pay dividends. Only wish I had even more time for writing.

Kept it pretty simple and straightforward, although I think I could improve it with a portfolio section.
michaellapan.com just redid it with vuepress, going to try and commit to blogging... again lol
I was totally fed up with social media due to the dark patterns and disinformation currents so I created a site where I only use black and white or grayscale to avoid unnecessary distraction. It's a jekyll based blog and wiki or "digital garden" which I want to integrate with LogSeq.
I also want to integrate a text adventure with vorple and inform7.
flawn.eu slick & minimalistic (that's at least what it should be :P)
Just a basic portfolio website

https://www.catpea.com/ custom code exploring github editable data, that is then processed into a local .cache folder and made into an express (JS) website which I then spider to convert into a static version.
UI uses bootstrap with minor modifications.
Compilation is handeled via https://github.com/catpea/eternia which I can't replace with hugo, as I want to have a notion of books, playlists, maybe javascript apps in some articles. I need a custom static site generator.
I am learning how to Narrate audiobooks while reading my own poetry, and learning how to write out philosophical ideas in the process.
I also convert the audio into simple videos on youtube, and recently uploaded a 70+ hour behemoth to the Internet Archive (3.6GB) https://archive.org/details/@catpea-com
I recommend making an audio recording of your writings (I use audacity and a mic with a pop/plosive filer) even if just for your family for 50 or a 100 years from now.
I have no views, I have no time to argue with people which is why I keep away from social media, I only have time make a stranger laugh (I do digital portraits on reddit and occasionally compose a weird song on youtube).
As to the content it self, I am just exploring random subjects, that capture my own curiosity. It is nothing special, it will take me a couple more decades to grow into a writer. This is my start.
Currently I am babbling about digital painting, previously 3D Printing, Music Composition, Circuit Design, Programming, Teaching, Dancing (I dance to Blanco Brown https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7U6AoZ27yE at the gym every day I can't help it), Bicycling, Camping, and sending people on the Appalachian trail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPSvdKTEZug
I host with vercel, as a hobby project. If you want to grab all the audio, use the archive.org or youtube. The archive.org link has everything one file, and youtube has a playlist you can hop around.
I am not a fan of ads, I understand YouTube maybe running their own ads on videos I did not monetize. If I recorded a video of my readings, and did video editing, I would regret putting all that time into videos that now would have ads between them.
I like being a narrator, not a fan of videos, decades from now I'll write an AudioBook, in which I complain about High School.

Let's you build e-commerce sites in less than 5 minutes. Just hook it to your Google drive and edit a spreadsheet. Fixed fee and stripe payments. More templates coming in the future. Got it up few weeks back and actively trying to get the first few customers. Happy to get some feedback.
Edit: Not a personal site, just realized the title of HN post.
