I launched my #100DaysOfKotlin learning journey - and in the process I learned about mkdocs (static site generator using markdown), discovered their material-mkdocs theme and became obsessed with it.

End result:
Learned enough to get a site running that is perfect for my #100Days journey!
See: kotlin.fyi

I really want to write a post on mkdocs now and I hope to do that soon. But for the curious - here are the links (and yes it deploys to GitHub pages easily - and can be setup with Github Actions to auto build/deploy - though I haven't done that yet)

Mkdocs: mkdocs.org/
Material Theme: squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/

Bonus: It's really built for effective documentation requirements so if you understand and love folder hierarchies for organizing information, and Markdown for formatting pages - then you will 😍 it too!
