Two things, one cents each:

- why would you use node.js, and a single page application framework setup for your personal page? Looks like static site generators would work just fine (gohugo, jekyl, astro, https://jamstack.org/generators etc., emacs org mode?). Maybe "just host that" on github page, gitlab page, cloudflare page, sourcehut page etc.)

Many gitlab pages example (easy deploy), https://gitlab.com/pages (favorite so far, https://gitlab.com/pages/org-mode)

- yes, frontend architecture and tooling hotdamnsucks; it's important to learn how to practice it with the fewer dependencies possible.

PS: maintaining one site is a pain, imagine when you got hundred in management; you gotta keep things clean and simple
