This blog is very relatable and I really like the idea of Small b blogging for smaller audiences.

I recently started my first own blog as a software developer and I decided to build my blog completely from scratch.

I used to do consulting for building WordPress and other CMS websites and I could never imagine myself using one of these tools for my personal needs if I were ever to start a blog myself.

There is so much code bloat and overhead when using any CMS or framework for the purpose of blogging. All I really need for my blog is a simple interface for adding some text and images to a database and a simple server that wraps everything together for the end-user.

This is my blog that I have built completely from scratch: https://miikavonbell.com

I really like the minimalistic approach of Tom's blog and will take some notes to improve my own platform.
