I agree -- I use Squarespace but the templates leave much to be desired. I tried my hand at jekyll (here are a few free themes to check out: jekyllthemes.io/free) but felt I was too busy tinkering instead of getting content out there. I've been figuring out how to rebrand my site outside of a the landing page (currently hosted on Squarespace: bzdata.biz). The first step: get out of the biz domain.
I like your clean personal website.
FWIW: I customized my resume per company when interviewing. Here's what I made for my current role at TruSTAR: bzdata.biz/ts-pm
I write code during the day. In the evening I cook for my beautiful family. By night I build fun stuff using hardware and software. Ping me if you have an idea and I can lend my hand.
HI Beatriz,
Cool work you did for your TruSTAR role. I am very impressed. Coming to Jekyll and to that matter, Hugo or Pelican, I personally think they are good for CMS or if you blogging regularly. My home page is not so busy and hence a HTML style template.
I have my blog on blot.im/ which is pretty cool since I have my posts written in markdown and host them on dropbox without the worry of templates. It is $20 per year but it is really worth it. Check it out.
Thanks for this. Haven't heard of blot.im. And am very impressed. I'm a huge markdown user (actually testing out laverna.cc/ as we speak)and already have files saved in MD on Dropbox. Thank you
Also, I'll keep following this thread to see what others say about the single webpage template.

Blot.im is one of those rare website you will end up finding when you get into the comments section on hackernews. It has been serving me pretty good so far. As a service, its complete no-nonsense and hence the simplicity.
I cannot wait to see what people here can contribute.

Thanks for answering my next question. I kept thinking this is great...why haven't I heard of it before?
