Infrastructure

This site is statically hosted by and accelerated worldwide with Azure CDN. The content delivery network uses an origin hosted by Azure Static Web Apps, currently in preview (hence, using Azure CDN in front of it).

It’s built using Eleventy for HTML, PostCSS for CSS, Gulp Responsive and Sharp for image processing, and a few scripts to coordinate everything. The current public version of this site is generated from the main branch of github.com/duncan/web and he process of taking all the bits, statically compiling them, and shipping them off to Azure is handled by GitHub Actions.

The domains for this website are registered at Hover and zones are hosted by Azure DNS. Nifty Lettuce’s Forward Email handles my domain’s email forwarding.
