This is my site for learning about WordPress and website development. It’s a live site where I like to post information for myself and others who may find it helpful. I am constantly trying out new things, both on the visible frontend and the backend (WordPress plugins, server settings, etc.)
I have created a blog that contains mostly technology related posts, but I may mix it up with other life-related posts. I am using my “home page” as a landing page for myself with links to sites that I visit frequently. It’s constantly being updated/tweaked.
