கற்றனைத் தூறும் அறிவு.

In sandy soil, when deep you delve, you reach the springs below;
The more you learn, the freer streams of wisdom flow.

Lxware is an outcome of a sleepless night, while I was freelancing in 2020. I had a blog in blogger for decades but failed to post regularly and I wanted to do it again. I chose this name as a tribute to Linux, Opensource and the bestminds out there. Originally I had this blog built on wordpress, with the help and motivation from a friend https://octogig.com. I also made couple of websites for Animal Welfare NGO’s https://catadvocates.org and a couple of others that has been decommissioned.

After extensively using https://Notion.so I wanted to use Jekyll to host my blog on Cloudflare pages, and was exploring GitHub Pages. I was discussing my idea with a colleague at work who already has his blog https://skidmore.co.uk using Hugo hosted on GitHub Pages. Based on his inspiration I have made this Markdown blog code hosted on GitHub Private Repository (free account) using Hugo but publishing it through Cloudflare Pages (free account) instead of GitHub pages.

I am still researching on how to use GitHub actions to develop and publish my site. And hoping to regulary blog.

Wish me luck!
