Blog Stack

This website is made with the great Gatsby static site generator written in JavaScript. Gatsby is programmed in React. The CSS library I use is Tailwind. My contact forms are written in the solid React UI library MUI.

For the burger menu in the mobile version I use react-burger-menu. Furthermore, I use the React hook library @react-hook/media-query. Prismjs formats and highlights the source code I include in many of my articles.

I program the components using the great UI documentation and testing tool Storybook. My favorite linter is ESLint that I also use for this site. The Husky application makes Git hooks easy, I leverage it for my pre-commit process. My end-to-end tests are written using the fantastic Cypress testing framework.

You can view the UI components of this blog on my Storybook site:

All of these software libraries and applications are open source and free to use. Without the contribution of many developers this blog would not be possible.

A big thank you to all!
