It’s up. The domain is established and both the app and the blog are deploying.

The app

The app is just a static HTML site containing the business plan, the roadmap, and a mockup. All put together with the help of Claude AI.

The blog

The blog is statically generated by Hugo and semi-autonomously deployed into the app at /blog/.

That’s all so far. It’s a start. Now, per the roadmap, I need to replace this static HTML with an actual application: backend/frontend/database.

What’s next

I’m thinking Python/Django, but only because that’s what I’ll find most familiar. I’m very tempted to think I should jump to one of those funky new typescript frameworks, like nextjs, expressjs, pagescms, svelt, or ???. But I’m not current on Typescript or even what-is-what in that realm. The closest I might allow myself would be to use one of these as a pure frontend which talks to a django api, like ‘django ninja’. But, again, running against all these is time. I really don’t want to muck around losing momentum by trying to learn new tricks. Or do I? Do I really want this thing to succeed, or is it just a vehicle for having some fun, learning, then getting a real job?
