Hello World!

Every tech blog needs a “Hello World” post. Instead of just testing the fonts, I thought I would share the actual stack powering this site.

I skipped the bloated, expensive cloud setups and built something simple, fast, and highly reliable.

🛠️ The Setup

Here is the lightweight infrastructure behind the screen:

• Framework: Astro – Keeping it static, blazing fast, and native MDX-ready.
• Hosting: Hetzner VPS – Running on-prem style on bare-metal virtual servers because performance doesn’t have to cost a fortune.
• Source Control: GitHub – Where the code lives and breathes.
• Automation: CI/CD Pipelines – Fully automated testing and 😉 deployment. A single git push takes the code from my local machine straight into production.
• Routing: DNS – Wired up and configured to make sure you actually land on this page.

🚀 What’s Next?

Now that the plumbing is done and the servers are humming, it’s time to write about what actually matters: backend systems, .NET, databases, and architectural decisions.

Stay tuned for real-world production insights. No theoretical fluff, just code that works.
