I've been through several iterations of my website over the years and used different technologies.<\/p>\n\n
The first versions were on Drupal 6 and 7 before I started to explore static site generators like Jekyll and Sculpin.<\/p>\n\n
One version was written with a JavaScript-based static site generator, but it needed a lot of JavaScript to render a simple HTML website.<\/p>\n\n
The current version has no JavaScript at all.<\/p>\n\n
There is no analytics script, carousels or fancy transitions.<\/p>\n\n
I keep the functionality as simple as possible.<\/p>\n\n
It's fast, accessible and responsive.<\/p>\n\n
If I'm considering adding something, I ask \"do I really need this?\".<\/p>\n\n
What impact will it have? Positive or negative.<\/p>\n\n
Do I want to take on the overhead of maintaining it?<\/p>\n\n
If not, I don't add it.<\/p>\n\n
