Welcome to the Tommyverse
Hi, I'm Thomas and this is my personal website.
I built this site in the summer of 2024 using Jekyll, GitHub Pages, and Tachyons CSS. I had some help from ChatGPT along the way. Building it without a CMS turned out to be a great learning experience.
You might notice that blog is written with a small b. That's intentional. It's a reference to Small b blogging by Tom Critchlow, a piece that inspired me to launch this site. Like Tom, I think of my blog as a place to explore ideas and document projects. It's not about reaching a large audience, but about writing, creating something I can reference, and hopefully connecting with others.
This website will be a work in progress, and blog posts will be irregular.
