It’s the site you’re on!

I enjoy homelabbing to have a nice sandbox to learn about programming. I wanted to learn about Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, so I thought a pipeline that used a static-site generator (SSG) in a Docker container would be a fun project. The site is built around Hugo, an SSG that converts markdown files into the content you see, which builds on my homelab server and is then pushed to a Digital Ocean Container Registry as the last part of my CI/CD pipeline.

Because the Princeton Axion Search is a new lab at the university, we have had to develop the infrastruture that enables the scientific research. We strongly value flexibility and control, so we opt for open source or homebrew solutions whenever possible. Particularly in the context of a research lab, designing systems that work across various operating systems, integrate with numerous decades of technology, and can are maintainable has proven to be an excellent opportunity to learn about system design.
