# Overview

This site used to be written using [Hugo][hugo], and written in Markdown. It's now
written in Rust, with content remaining in Markdown. I mostly chose to do this
so I could explore more of frontend development and especially the Rust web
ecosystem.

[hugo]: https://gohugo.io

# Architecture

The Rust backend is hosted at
[muirrum/site](https://git.devcara.com/muirrum/site). It loads the markdown into
HTML and stores it in global state that's then passed to each handler.
