Welcome to my personal home on the internet, where I share insights about myself—my thoughts, current projects, aspirations, and more.
While I continue to publish content on other platforms, such as X (formerly Twitter) at @zaidmukaddam (opens in new tab), I hope to eventually transition away from them. I’m still figuring out how to achieve this.
Much like life, this website is always a work in progress.
Technology
This website is generated using a static website generator that I built myself with Swift (opens in new tab).
It’s using a simple layout system built around VStacks and HStacks, inspired by SwiftUI (opens in new tab).
Why? I simply love working with Swift and SwiftUI, and I immerse myself in it whenever possible. As a web developer, building my own static website generator was a fun challenge and a way to make the impossible seem possible.
As the website generator is built with Swift, I use Xcode (opens in new tab) to work on the website.
I buy all my domain names at Porkbun (opens in new tab). I bought zmukaddam.zip just this year(2024).
Carbon footprint
Thanks to this being a static website, only 0.00g CO² is produced per visit, according to websitecarbon.com (opens in new tab).
The global average is at around 0.8g CO² per visit.
