It does not need to contain everything you have ever made; it needs to help visitors understand who you are and what you care about.</p> <h2 id="start-with-the-content">Start with the content<a class="zola-anchor" href="#start-with-the-content" aria-label="Anchor link for: start-with-the-content">🔗</a></h2> <p>Before choosing colors or typography, decide what the site should communicate. A useful first version might contain only three things:</p> <ul> <li>A short introduction</li> <li>A small selection of projects</li> <li>Articles about subjects you know well</li> </ul> <p>This keeps the structure simple and gives every page a reason to exist.</p> <h2 id="keep-assets-with-their-article">Keep assets with their article<a class="zola-anchor" href="#keep-assets-with-their-article" aria-label="Anchor link for: keep-assets-with-their-article">🔗</a></h2> <p>This post stores its cover beside the Markdown file:</p> <pre class="giallo" style="color: #24292E; background-color: #FFFFFF;"><code data-lang="plain"><span class="giallo-l"><span>content/projects/building-a-personal-site/</span></span> <span class="giallo-l"><span>├── index.md</span></span> <span class="giallo-l"><span>└── cover.svg</span></span></code></pre> <p>Colocating assets makes an article easy to rename, move, or remove without leaving unrelated files elsewhere in the project.</p> <h2 id="publish-and-iterate">Publish and iterate<a class="zola-anchor" href="#publish-and-iterate" aria-label="Anchor link for: publish-and-iterate">🔗</a></h2> <p>The first version does not need to be final.
