My first post!

I finally got round to the task of creating my portfolio/about-me website.

First blog post

Hi, thanks for visiting! I created this site using Hugo and hosted for FREE on Netlify. I’m also using Forestry.io as a CMS.

Hugo is one of the most popular open-sourced static site generators, it’s very powerful, flexible and has thousands of themes to choose from.

Netlify makes it super easy for developers to host websites responsibly, in a way that is scalable and secure. Netlify simplifies the process for developers to deploy and host a website. It does all the work for them that they probably don’t want to spend too much time or effort on. Not just that, but it also provides several benefits for editors too!

Forestry.io is a Git-backed CMS (content management system) for websites and web products built using static site generators. Forestry bridges the gap between developers and their teams, by making development fun and easy while providing powerful content management for their teams.

If you’re interested in setting up your own site here’s a very quick and simple YouTube tutorial to get you started!
