Field note

Hello! I've migrated my existing Jekyll-based blog to Astro.

Why Astro?

  • Fast Build Speed: Much faster builds compared to Jekyll
  • Modern Development Experience: TypeScript and ESM support
  • Island Architecture: Load JavaScript only where needed
  • Tailwind CSS Integration: Easy styling

Major Changes

  1. Jekyll → Astro migration
  2. Minimal Mistakes theme → Custom Tailwind design
  3. Liquid templates → Astro components
  4. Type-safe content management with Content Collections

I plan to continue writing technical posts about Cloud, Kubernetes, and DevOps.

Thank you!
