Very cool! I liked many of the results just trying a few random things

I noticed a few things related to the site itself that make it feel unfinished and basically an incomplete site template:

* The "About us" and "Blog" links are broken.

* The social media links (X, Discord, GitHub) don't actually link anywhere.

* The pricing page is for a different product altogether.

As I work on personal projects I often have this internal battle: "Do I really need to use react for this small project? Doesn't this make it more bloated than it needs to be?" ...and then I create a vite react app and get up and running quickly while I still have the inspiration for the idea. There's something to be said for having an opinionated framework that just removes a large amount of extraneous decisions that can slow progress. I want a lightweight page but that is secondary to just wanting the thing I'm trying to make.

Yes, UVU. And also yes. If I find myself needing something low-level and performant, I have a hard time justifying the ramp-up time required to use D since there is a near zero chance I would use it in my current or future employment. While that isn't always how I decide what technologies to use in my personal time, it definitely is a factor that tips the scales towards a more mainstream language
