Today marks the day I publish my first note here on my site. I spent some time thinking about what to write, figuring out what platform to put this on, designing my Quartz setup, procrastinating, and so forth. I spent too much time on the minor details, and while I want to spruce up the site some more I figured this is a good start for me to post my content. To commemorate my first post, I decided to introduce this website using the 5 Ws (and 1 H).
Who?
My name is David, but some folks may call me by Xolti. I am a developer, a game lover, and a game creator. I’d like to say I am some hero hailing from a far away country, but I have no significant titles to bare (yet). But maybe you’ll find a part of me from my posts.
What?
I write about stuff that I feel like writing about- opinions, tutorials, info dumps, what have you. While this space is meant for me to pour out my thoughts in blog form, I do like to capture things I find interesting or worth sharing to the public. Topics will vary, but you can expect to see game development and life related posts.
When?
Although the first commit to my blog was on April 8th, this is my first post. I will say during the early months of 2026 I had the idea of starting a blog and had some early drafts, but indecision delayed the choice of how I wanted to portray it up until now.
Where?
The Internet, of course. But if you want to know my general whereabouts, see Current Status.
Why?
I’ve always had thoughts in my head- opinions, curiosities, ramblings of the sort. Certain things that excite me or make my brain tickle end up flowing through my mind, whether they be ideas or simply what I thought about the new restaurant I had recently. But its not always that I can bring something up in a conversation, and before I know it I’d forget about it anyway.
From there, I decided I wanted to make a blog. I always wanted to do this for a long time, but laziness got the better of me. More importantly, I wasn’t expecting anyone to read what I had to say anyways. I would check out random blogs of folks and admire their writing styles, their points, and their messages. They were so inspiring, and it was all that it took for me to waive the thought that I could match their quality. Eventually, the desire to document my personal experiences outgrew my negative thoughts and I pushed forth to create this website.
How
I’ll be posting content here from now on, without any set cadence. I hope I can post freely (and with enjoyment) one day, but it may be a habit of mine to put any thoughts here when I feel like it. All of my writing is of my own, which means content will not be generated by AI.
This garden was created through Quartz, with a bit of customization on my side.
And as I begin my journey cultivating my digital garden, I’m starting to see others in a new light- inspiring, yet unique in their own taste. A variety of flowers grown differently to their owner’s desires. So, here I am with my first iteration. I hope to welcome you with what I have to offer.
