Hello, world
A first post — and a quick tour of what the writing template can render.
Hi 👋 I am Ekam and this is my technical blog. While I call it a blog, site is more like a refined version of my notes as I learn about new things.
I call it eventually consistent because just like the breadth and depth of my technical knowledge, the content of the different posts in my blogs improves over time as I learn more so expect posts to get revised, expanded, and sometimes contradicted by later ones!
Writing
Writing with markdown
A short guide to the markdown features wired into this template — cover images, code, math, footnotes, and admonitions.
Writing with MDX
Posts can also be .mdx — same frontmatter, but with imports, JSX, and inline expressions on top of plain markdown.
Notes on the tooling
What's underneath this template — Astro, Pagefind, Giscus, KaTeX — and why each piece is here.
On restraint in design
A short note on the editorial choices behind this template — and why most things are quiet on purpose.
