Blog Setup Summary (Hexo + GitHub Version)

WARNING

Early Website Record (Inactive, Preserved for Commemoration)

https://guzhengsvt.github.io

A personal blog built with GitHub+Hexo. The main functionalities have been completed.

After two days of intense work, I’ve finally realized a two-year dream—creating my own personal website (blog). In this noisy era of conformity and silence, this serves as a small piece of internet territory I can call my own.

The idea of building a blog originated two years ago when I stumbled upon beautifully crafted blogs by experts while surfing the web for resources. In the early stages, I was groping in the dark—knowing nothing, with poor English skills, and no money to buy a domain or server. Due to academic pressures in my senior year of high school, the project was paused for a year, and the domain I bought on Alibaba Cloud even expired.

I’m grateful to all the individuals, platforms, companies, and communities who helped me along the way.

Here’s the acknowledgments list (in no particular order):

Special thanks to the expert from USTC for helping me troubleshoot the issue where only Git Bash could reliably control operations across multiple terminals;

Thanks to GitHub for providing an open-source platform;

Thanks to GitHub and Sanfengyun for offering free servers;
