Hello World — kpango.com is live

Introducing the new kpango.com personal portal built with Hono, HTMX, and Tailwind CSS


Hello World

Welcome to the new kpango.com — my personal portal, rebuilt from scratch.

Why a rebuild?

The old site was a static GitHub Pages export. It served its purpose, but I wanted something that felt more like a living document: a place where my CV, OSS projects, and occasional blog posts all live together in a fast, maintainable codebase.

Tech stack

  • Hono — lightweight edge-ready web framework for TypeScript
  • HTMX — hypermedia-driven interactivity without a heavy JS framework
  • Tailwind CSS — utility-first CSS for rapid, consistent styling
  • Cloudflare Workers — globally distributed, near-zero cold starts
  • TypeScript — strict mode throughout; no any

The entire UI is rendered server-side with hono/jsx. HTMX handles partial page updates and hx-boost gives SPA-like navigation without a client-side router.

What's here

  • /cv — my full résumé with work history, education, and skills
  • /oss — deep dives into the open-source projects I maintain (Vald, Gache, Glg, Garm…)
  • /blog — occasional posts on distributed systems, Go, and whatever I'm hacking on

What's next

I plan to add vector search powered by Cloudflare Vectorize so you can semantically search across all content on the site. Stay tuned.
