This was the old Django project that originally powered brysonsteck.xyz with Gunicorn before I realized three things:
|
|
|
|
1. I hate Python.
|
|
1. The design path I chose was pretty bulky; it took up a lot of unnecessary space.
|
|
1. The way I was creating the blogs and project pages made a static site generator look more appealing.
|
|
|
|
As a result, the [new static website](/projects/this-website) was born with Hugo!
