A short intro to the blog
Daniel Vahla 4 min read
I built this blog through an iterative journey of learning and refinement, starting with simple Markdown renderers and eventually landing on a sophisticated tech stack combining Astro, Next.js, and a custom AI-powered pipeline. The result is a fully automated publishing system that fetches content from the Webiny CMS backend and intelligently generates summaries, creates AI-powered header images, and deploys to Cloudflare Pages, all while keeping the actual content creation in my hands. Beyond the technical infrastructure, the blog showcases rich features like customizable code themes, character chat interactions, GitHub cards, and full Markdown support, making it a playground for both technical depth and creative expression.
