In a recent fit of inspiration, I channeled my new passion for Clojure to redesign and rebuild my website. I wanted to keep the design as simple and readable as possible, an homage to minimalist unstyled html.

The new version is built with Perun, a Clojure library for generating static sites with Boot. Content is written in Markdown and rendered with composable functions that return Hickup vectors.

Thanks to boot-reload, I live coded both design and content with Atom and Chrome in split screen - a very fun and productive workflow.

Finally, I'm using Netlify to host the site. On every push to a pull request or branch, a perpetual immutable deployment, with its own url, is built with Boot in a Docker container.

To deploy changes to production, I simply merge into master.

If you are interested in reading the source or want to fork the website for your own purposes, it's available on GitHub under the MIT license.
