Hello World - My first article here

Hello there!

General Kenobi

In case you missed it, I'm Jakub Dajczak, a software developer from Gdańsk, Poland. And kind of a nerd, as you can see. I decided to build this website to share my thoughts and projects with others.

So, this is one of my projects - my website.

How it started

I watched a NetworkChuck video about why I need a website, and I thought it was a great idea. So, I decided to build one.

BTW I cannot recommend NetworkChuck enough. He's a great guy. Go watch his videos!

Why Nuxt?

During one of my university labs, I used Vue to build a website, and honestly, I fell in love with it. However, I never had the chance to use it again. Later, I discovered that Nuxt exists as a Vue framework, and I decided to give it a try. Since I needed something that would work on GitHub Pages, I was delighted to find that Nuxt was perfect for that.

How it's built

In the beginning I was thinking about building a website from scratch and even started to write some code, but later I found amazing template made by Fayaz Ahmed and I decided to use it. I was a blast, and it was a pleasure to work with it. Thanks Fayaz!

As I mentioned before, I'm using GitHub Pages to host my website. I have a separate repository for the website, and I'm using GitHub Actions to deploy it. It was very easy to set up, and works as a charm.

What's next?

I'm hoping to add new articles and describe my learnings in the future. I'm also planning to start and organize my new projects, so stay tuned!

See You Starside!
