Hello, from mkdocs#

For some time, I have been a fan of the Zettelkasten method and markdown, and had a self-proclaimed goal of building a site where I could share byte-sized notes about topics I deal with at work - software engineering, python and golang, cyber security, and other productivity related topics.

After seeing what rwxrob's Zettelkasten has evolved into, I finally found the right setup to accomplish the above. The two main reasons I am favouring mkdocs over other static site generators like Hugo are:

  1. Pure markdown support.
  2. Built-in search engine for keywords - no more need for tags or extra work to build a search engine for my own site.

I still had the overhead of building the scripts to automatically create new notes and get them indexed for the main page but that was also a fun challenge to tackle.
