## History
This is the latest revision of my blog.

The v1 of this was run using [Pelican](https://getpelican.com/), and the archived code can be found on [Github](https://github.com/asara/ampx). Originally it was running on a raspberry pi in my parent's house, on a domain long gone.

The v2 of the website was created to learn Go and JavaScript. It is technically the first version of sudoscientist. The [backend](https://git.devvul.com/Asara/sudoscientist-go-backend) was written using go-chi, and the [frontend](https://git.devvul.com/Asara/sudoscientist-js-frontend) was written using the React/Redux framework.

This is [v3](https://git.devvul.com/Asara/sudoscientist.com) of my blog, which is powered by [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/), and uses a modified version of [risotto](https://risotto.joeroe.io/) as its theme. It has been extended to include [forkawesome](https://forkaweso.me) and some small cleanup. I made the decision to return to using a static site generator as I have mostly forgotten React/Redux. Along with this, using Go in multiple other projects, I do not feel like I need to run my blog with golang anymore.

The inspiration for this theming, and returning to a static site generator was in part due to the awesome community over at [Ctrl-C](https://ctrl-c.club). The `tildeverse` in general is a great reminder that minimalism is not only useful, but sometimes more fulfilling.

At a v3, I hope this time around I actually write some blog posts!
