Sleep deprived projects are the best projects https://ec.je/b/38w
I acquired a new, fancy domain for a new side project. A site with tips on how to save money on purchases is something I would like to start. The search for a CMS reminds me of why I built GoBlog: all available options are not optimal. But GoBlog also isn’t optimal for this project for various reasons, as it shouldn’t be a typical personal blog. And now I have this really cool domain and question my plans. 😅 ⌘ Read more

So I’ll put it on github where I have all my other public projects. I have to write the readme, then add some info on the login page (link to source etc), then it’s ready to release with the current features. I then hope others will give it a try and use it if they want :) I also have many other features I need to implement, but all the main features that makes it usable has been implemented, so I’m very pleased with it (And I use it all the time now).

So now I’ll do all development there - instead of on windows.
