Where Has The Time Gone

“How did it get so late so soon? It’s night before it’s afternoon. December is here before it’s June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?” Dr. Seuss

So I had, not so many posts ago, set a goal for an MVP of LearnHow at 1/1/2022. It felt ambitious but something to strive for. The initial plan was to focus on the content and get the site out there, with tooling and niceties as not much more than an after thought.

Build the content at all cost and use whatever resources were already out there. Whatever you do, don’t build yet another static site generator (SSG)…

Well here we are, 4 months later and while I don’t have an MVP for LearnHow.dev, I do have a rudimentary SSG grounded in FrontierJS principles.

It’s hard to say whether it was better to flip the process around. Time will tell. Speaking of time, I will set a new deadline for 5/15/2022.

Next Steps

Since the SSG framework has been built out and being used as a key part of FrontierJS, it seems at this point, the best course of action is to use it. I am going to start a fresh LearnHow site with it and migrate over what little I have from the old one.

Some perks are that basic functionality like mobile nav and styling structure for layouts, etc. are worked out. This choice will reinforce my investment in its features as well as its use for clients.

I need to:

It’s about 9:00PM now. Let’s see how long this takes…

Update

It took about 4 hours…amoungst other things going on.

Update 2

I also moved this site knight.works over to the new format as well.
