New domain name ^^

2023-06-14

Recently, I changed my blog from https://ntheanh201.vercel.app to https://ntheanh201.id.vn

Here are some reasons:

  • The domain “id.vn” is cheap, which costs me 132k VND ~ $5.62 for 2 years (it’s currently free for you guys from 18-23, I’ve just turned 24 :’( ).
  • Vercel provided me with powerful features such as CI/CD, live previews, … and a free subdomain, but I prefer to configure these things manually by myself.

So I decided to use AWS, which also doesn't cost much for this small thing as I calculated (with Free Tier plan)

My blog’s tech stack:

  • Go
  • Notion (as a database)
  • AWS CloudFront with S3 origin for hosting
  • Route53 for hosted zone

My todo list:

  • Github Actions to retrieve posts from Notion, build, generate UI, and upload to S3
  • Host all blog images on S3
  • Write more posts xD
