Learning Quickshell, Part 1: QML Basics

I recently came across saneAspect’s video on YouTube video, showcasing a custom bar below with smooth & elegant animations.

Quickshell Dynamic Island

I had only seen such animations, and UI design on Dribbble UIs, interactive websites (thanks to CSS & JS for making that easier) or proprietary operating systems like MacOS or new Android UI that have dedicated teams, bugdets, engineers,… You name it.

Setting Up a Hugo Site

For the last few weeks, I have been trying to create a blog that serves as a documentation for different projects that I usually build while learning new technologies.

Normally, when starting a new blog or updating an existing one, “traditional” Content Management Systems or SaaS solutions are recommended because of how quickly you can spin up your site and deploy it to your audience.

While that’s good in terms of speed of getting something out there, it can also come with some cons that you might miss when choosing which medium to use while writing your blogs.
