      Part of me wants to laugh at it, how he has less than a dozen blog posts for all this effort.

      Another part of me understands to an extent, the site is a blog post itself and part of a portfolio of his technical abilities. Just because modern frameworks are so fucked, you typically have a team maintaining and updating them to have a consistently performant site, and this guy is doing one in his free time. Its just another way to sell his skills.

      Seeing all this though, makes me appreciate refusing to learn react and just doing raw html with like 20 lines of vanilla js when I need a frontend.

      switch to a static site generator like hugo and jekyll.

      Shit, you can even find a tutorial on YouTube that introduces you to Jekyll: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8iOU1ci19Q
