Building the RobbieBoy site

Why a static-first studio site, and how MDX fits without a CMS.

  • Next.js
  • MDX
  • Studio

This site is intentionally boring infrastructure: Next.js App Router, Tailwind CSS, and local MDX files for writing.

Goals

  • Fast pages, minimal JavaScript, and content that lives in the repo.
  • A layout that stays out of the way—typography and spacing do the work.
  • Room to grow: experiments and projects can link without turning into a product brochure.

What shipped first

The homepage anchors the story: featured work, recent notes, and a direct path to contact. Everything else is navigation depth, not noise.
