Why

I wanted to play with Next.js's Static Generation feature using Markdown files as the data source.

My blog posts are stored in /_posts as Markdown files. Super simple. I try to treat this website kind of like a digital garden for my most recent curiosities.

I also wanted to get better at building my own designs. I sketch (most) ideas for this website before I write any code using Figma.

How to create your own

Execute create-next-app with npm or Yarn to bootstrap the example:

npx create-next-app --example blog-starter blog-starter-app
# or
yarn create next-app --example blog-starter blog-starter-app

Your blog should be up and running on http://localhost:3000! If it doesn't work, post on GitHub discussions.

Deploy it to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).

Notes

This blog-starter uses Tailwind CSS. To control the generated stylesheet's filesize, this example uses Tailwind CSS' v1.4 purge option to remove unused CSS.
