The label works in both ways: "old computer" nerd, and old "computer nerd". This site is basically my own little vanity project. It's purpose is to give myself an opportunity to stay familiar with basic HTML and CSS skills, as well as provide a personal/private space on the internet to share what I learn while pursuing my own hobby projects.
This site is built primarily around the Apache2 Markdown module. It automatically renders markdown documents into HTML for display on your browser. The content you're looking at right now (not counting the header and footer) is nothing but pure markdown text. One of the nice features of the module, is that you can intermix HTML within the markdown, and it will "just work". What makes all this especially nice, is that it eliminates almost entirely, any need for PHP, Javascript, Typescript, or server-side perl or python to present the website to you. The only javascript this site uses (and it technically didn't need to) is highlight.js for code syntax colouring.
