Luke Berry's blog

A personal website and blog built with Astro, React islands, and Tailwind CSS. Articles are authored as markdown in src/articles/ and rendered via Astro content collections.

Getting started

Install dependencies and run the development server with Bun:

bun install
bun run dev

Open http://localhost:4321 to see the result.

Scripts

• bun run dev - start the dev server
• bun run build - build the static site to dist/
• bun run preview - preview the production build locally
• bun run start - serve the production build on $PORT (used in deployment)

Writing articles

Add a markdown file to src/articles/ with frontmatter:

---
title: "My article"
date: "2026-01-01"
tags: ["technology"]
location: "London, United Kingdom"
---

Deployment

Deployed on Railway using the configuration in railway.json: it builds with bun run build and serves the static output with astro preview.
