Well ... that took some time to get up and running. But nonetheless, here we are, and my site is starting to work!
@ -18,24 +18,24 @@ the servants as markdown files (kinda ironic, this is a markdown file as well).
said to me: "Why don't you just create a small site with GitLab Pages? You can host that on my instance". And so, I started writing HTML and CSS by hand, getting the
first version of this site done after 1-2 days. It was challenging, as my experience with CSS was limited, but in the end, it was ready (special thanks again to [Mitsunee](https://www.mitsunee.com/) for helping me so much with the CSS).
But I got tired of always writing the same lines of code (because that happens if you have multiple cards with different content), so I kinda stopped updating the site for a while.

But then came [Astro](https://astro.build). When Mitsunee recommended it to me, I was instantly amazed by how easy this was ... I just needed to migrate the existing site to Astro (which took me a bit) and adapt the `gitlab-ci.yml`, and it was done! It felt amazing, having reusable components and simple creation of those.

Shout outs to one of my favourite lines which creates the servant cards on the Servants page:
```typescript
<BaseSection title="Servants">
{servantdata.map((item) => (<ServantCard {...item}/>))}
{servantdata.map((item) => (
<ServantCard {...item} />
))}
</BaseSection>
```
But still, the whole site felt odd. It was a single page, with everything just cramped in there. So around 2 weeks ago, I started to rewrite the whole thing as a multi-page website. GitLab made it sometimes pretty hard (because having a baseurl of `/fgosite` was forced), but it worked and felt a lot cooler.
Still, I was a bit annoyed that I had this long-ish URL for the site (`firq.pages.neshweb.net/fgosite`), but the GitLab instance didn't offer to set a custom domain (because of how the server where it runs is set up).

So in the end, Neshura and I started a journey on how to best do this, and, in the end, found a solution.

## But ... how does it work?
