New year, new me website look!
Since its inception, this blog has been made using Pelican as the static site generator of choice. It became my go-to because it had the wonderful option to render Jupyter notebooks without me having to use any external tools, which saved me a lot of headaches. Unfortunately, the plugin that enabled this feature got abandoned and my personal computer got upgraded to one with Apple’s ARM processor, so I couldn’t revert to older Python versions where things worked smoothly. I somehow made it work for my most recent post, but it took a lot of finagling and I realized that this is not sustainable. Since then, I discovered Quarto, a technical publishing system that has the option to generate static websites as well. It works seamlessly with Jupyter notebooks, has a more streamlined workflow and I can see myself using it for other things, work-related or not, so I made the switch. I think all my older posts render correctly, so there’s no need to worry if you’re new or a returning reader.
