I am writing about my experiences... 2026-07-21T00:00:00Z https://henriklauritsen.dk/ Henrik Lauritsen 2026-07-21T00:00:00Z https://henriklauritsen.dk/blog/goodbye-github-pages/ <p>My previous website was a small react app deployed using GitHub Pages. It was created mainly to try out react a bit and showcase music I took part in creating. I have now moved the content to this site. The code can be found on <a href="https://github.com/lauritsen/lauritsen.github.io">GitHub</a> and for now it still lives on <a href="https://lauritsen.github.io">lauritsen.github.io</a>.</p> <p>R.I.P.</p> <picture><source type="image/avif" srcset="https://henriklauritsen.dk/blog/goodbye-github-pages/eVg4h2m6c8-1592.avif 1592w"><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://henriklauritsen.dk/blog/goodbye-github-pages/eVg4h2m6c8-1592.webp 1592w"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://henriklauritsen.dk/blog/goodbye-github-pages/eVg4h2m6c8-1592.png" alt="Screenshot of my previous website." width="1592" height="2248"></picture> 2026-05-04T00:00:00Z https://henriklauritsen.dk/blog/hello-world/ <p>Hi there!</p> <p>I am Henrik, a software engineer from Denmark living in Switzerland, and this is my blog. A while ago, I wanted to check out static site generators, but never got around to it. Now suddenly it felt like it was time. I decided to try out <a href="https://www.11ty.dev/">11ty</a> and to deploy it to <a href="https://developers.cloudflare.com/pages/">Cloudflare Pages</a>. If you are interested you can checkout other generators on <a href="https://jamstack.org/generators/">Jamstack</a>.</p> <p>After watching and following along <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzf9A9tkkl4"> 6 Minutes to Build a Blog from Scratch with Eleventy</a> to get the basics, I started this blog based on the <a href="https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-base-blog">eleventy-base-blog v9</a>. <!-- Below you will see a snippet of how this first blog post looked, when it was posted #inception. -->Let's see how it develops.</p> <p>All the best, <br>Henrik</p> <!-- <img src="first-blog-post.png" alt="Screenshot of first blog post."> -->
