Yea my point was that people love to overcomplicate their stuff. Having a whole infrastructure for a personal project that isnt even started yet is insane.
That depends on the project. I’m a technical artist— sometimes my personal projects get pretty elaborate and pretty technical and don’t have the equivalent of an MVP that can be put together with a few handmade pages. Even something like a simple gallery of images that each have their own page (or the functional equivalent) is going to involve a ridiculous amount of manual work right off the bat. The only dumb way to approach it is not considering the right tool for the job.
