Keep your blog simple!

One of the writers I follow, Fabien Sanglard, recently wrote a piece about All you may need is HTML.
His point is that if you're using a complex setup with generator:
- you're missing on the opportunity to learn core technologies of the internet,
- you're just using techs on top of it,
- and the maintenance of it all is more complicated, the more stuff you add (CMS, database, etc.)
I fully agree, and this is why this blog is running on a simple(ish) Bash script (BashBlog), which I tweaked a bit and enhanced with a search feature (using PageFind).
This gives me complete freedom about how I use and host it.
