User Interface
Technology
Building Käsediebe, my food blog, required a combination of technologies and infrastructure to ensure a seamless and efficient user experience. Here's an overview of the tools and services that power the application: To expedite the development process, I utilized Tailwind CSS and daisyUI . These tools provided prebuilt components that allowed me to build my app efficiently without spending too much time on design details. As a static site generator, Astro plays a crucial role in my workflow. It enables me to quickly generate all the pages for my blog during build time, ensuring fast load times and a smooth user experience. For the interactive client-side components, I employed SolidJS , which allows me to create dynamic elements that enhance the overall functionality of the site. For content management, I chose Contentful , a headless CMS that as a flawless integration with Astro. This combination makes maintaining my blog effortless and straightforward. I host my application on Netlify , which provides reliable and efficient hosting services. To implement instant search functionality, I integrated Algolia . It is directly connected to my Contentful space, ensuring that whenever I publish a new recipe, Contentful triggers a webhook. This webhook updates the Algolia search index and initiates a build and deployment of my app on Netlify, keeping everything up-to-date seamlessly.
