### hi

After a few years on NextJS with various content backends (Contentful, Hygraph, Sanity, Tina, etc.), I've embraced a new approach.

The front-end is built with [Astro](https://astro.build/), and the content is authored in [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/). The markdown files are stored in a private repo on Github, and pulled into the Astro site through the Github GraphQL API.

Images that are added to the markdown in Obsidian are uploaded to a [Cloudflare R2](https://www.cloudflare.com/developer-platform/r2/) bucket, and the URLs are replaced in the markdown files. In Astro, these images are optimized and cached through [Pinata](https://www.pinata.cloud/).

The site is hosted on [Vercel](https://vercel.com/), and I'm using [PostHog](https://posthog.com/) for some basic analytics.

> The code is provided as-is, and I'm not planning to provide support for this setup. Feel free to use it as inspiration for your own projects.
