GarfieldTech version 3, now on MiDy

Posted:

You may notice some style changes around here. Like, a lot of style changes. That's not all that's changed, in fact.

This is the official launch of the third iteration of my personal website. This time, it is built almost entirely from scratch using my own tooling: MiDy. Which is, incidentally, now available for public use.

Mildly Dynamic websites are back

I am pleased to report that my latest side project, MiDy, is now available for alpha testing!

MiDy is short for Mildly Dynamic. Inspired by this blog post, MiDy tries to sit "in between" static site generators and full on blogging systems. It is optimized for sites that are mostly static and only, well, "mildly dynamic." SMB websites, blogs, agency sites, and other use cases where frankly, 90% of what you need is markdown files and a template engine... but you still need that other 10% for dynamic listings, form submission, and so on.
