+
+Welcome to my homepage. In this post I'll try to explain why and how this site was build.
+
+I created this website to give an overview about my person and the projects I'm working on.

+Setup
+=
+This website is generated by the static website generator [Hugo][1] using the awesome [After Dark theme][2]. I track the source files of the website in a [GitHub repository][3]. Everything is written using the [Vim][4] text editor. The web server is a [nginx server][5] running on my own dedicated server from [Kimsufi][6] and does not log the visitors IP address (I **do** write access logs but I will never log IP addresses).
+
+I chose a static site generator over a CMS like WordPress because plain markdown files are easier to manage e.g. using git in contrast to WordPress posts being stored somewhere deep in a database. Also have a look at the [WordPress release notes][7]. Hugo generates static HTML files which are served through nginx, so there are no security risks.
+
+The web server forces you to use a TLS encrypted connection using HTTP/2, therefore I used [Let's Encrypt][8] to get a free certificate (you might want to check out my awesome [SSL rating][9]).
+
+All posts are written using [Vim][10] with some plugins. My Vim configuration can be seen in my [dotfile repository][11].
