Hi there!

Welcome to my new blog. Thank you for wasting your time reading me, I mean, I'm pretty sure there's a new Netflix documentary that you haven't seen way more interesting than reading what an average human being from Spain could write. So thank you for reading 😊.

Why I made this? This is my 3rd or 4th attempt at trying to start a blog. I hope to be more consistent and write often. The good thing is that this is the first time I make a blog by myself, on my domain (years ago I used Blogger and Medium). So let's see how this goes 😃.

What about the content? I'm not completely sure if this is going to be a purely technical blog or I'm going to write about other things, I'll figure it out while driving. Anyway, for now, the topics will be mostly technical, I'm exploring SwiftUI so I think that's what I'm going to start with.

What about how I made this website? I made it entirely with Publish, a great tool to make websites with Swift, by my buddy John Sundell. Check it out, it's modular and versatile, John did an amazing job building it.

If you want to know how to make your website with Publish, 2 articles helped me to get started:

• Getting started with publish by my friend David Collado.
• Migrating from Jekyll to Publish: A site generator for Swift developers by Povilas Staskus.

If you've reached this point chances are that you've completed Netflix and you do not have anything else to do, so here's a recommendation: go watch Objectified if you haven't yet. A great documentary on design and our relationships with products. Or you can always go to the NSSpain Vimeo channel and watch a talk 😇.

Cheers ✌️.
