I wanted a dead simple blog to keep trace of stuff. I had been previously using a Google doc, but can do better. This is:

  • Using jekyll for the actual blog.
  • Using Google app engine for the hosting.
    • This does come with SSL cert etc.
  • Using GCP DNS for the DNS records.

I had thought github pages didn’t do custom domains, but looking closer they do. Maybe next time I will set that up. I tried to delay actually setting up the blog until I had some content, but I got that in January, so lets write something. I think this is my 3rd blog. whoops.
