James' Coffee Blog
About Me 👋
Hello! I'm James (also capjamesg). My pronouns are he/him/his. I live in Scotland, UK. This is my blog, themed to celebrate the upcoming holiday season ❄️.
I like to brew coffee at home. I usually use the Aeropress, V60, Chemex, or Kalita Wave to brew my coffee.
On this blog, I share my thoughts on all things coffee and I interview people who work in coffee, with a particular emphasis on the Scottish coffee industry.
I sometimes write about websites and web development. My email address is readers@jamesg.blog. I sometimes post on Instagram.
I also contribute to the IndieWeb wiki. I have open sourced some code on GitHub.

Advent of Bloggers 2021
Published on under the Advent of Bloggers (Series) category.
For the last week or two, I have been thinking whether there is a December blogging series I could take on, similar to how Advent of Code publishes a new coding challenge every day throughout Advent. I thought that I would just continue with my regular blogging until yesterday when I came up with an idea: write a blog post every day of Advent that talks about a particular blog I like. I am calling this my "advent of bloggers" series.

Moving over to my own static site generator
Published on under the IndieWeb category.
I have been thinking about building a static generator for a while. I enjoy using static site generation to build my site but up until now I have deferred the actual logic behind site generation to Jekyll. This was perfect at the beginning because my site was more about writing with the occasional page change. Now, however, I am interested in expanding my site with a bit more code.
